Product details
Overview
MSP430F2417TPN from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC microcontroller with 92KB + 256B flash, 8KB RAM, 12-bit ADC, dual USCI_A/USCI_B modules (UART/I²C/SPI), two 16-bit timers (Timer_A3 and Timer_B7), and on-chip comparator - designed for battery-powered sensor nodes and portable medical meters operating from 1.8 V to 3.6 V.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F2417TPN datasheet, MSP430F2417TPN pinout, MSP430F2417TPN application, or MSP430F2417TPN equivalent, key selection criteria include LPM4 current (0.1 µA), wake-up time (<1 µs), ADC12 resolution (12-bit, 8-channel), I/O count (up to 48), and LQFP-80 package compatibility with industrial control and handheld meter designs.
Technical Context
The MSP430F2417TPN implements a 16-bit CPU with constant generators and calibrated DCO enabling sub-1-µs wake-up from LPM4. Its peripheral set excludes DMA and DAC12 modules present in the F261x series, distinguishing it as a cost-optimized variant within the F241x family.
It supports four USCI modules (two UART-capable USCI_A0/A1 and two I²C/SPI-capable USCI_B0/B1), dual 16-bit timers with capture/compare capability, and a hardware multiplier - all operating under five low-power modes optimized for extended battery life in measurement applications.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430F2416TPN | Same package and core; 4KB RAM instead of 8KB; identical peripheral set (no DAC/DMA). | Suitable for simpler sensor nodes with lower buffer requirements (e.g., single-sensor temperature loggers). | Select when RAM budget is constrained and no multi-channel buffering or complex state machines are required. |
| MSP430F2617TPN | Same flash/RAM size but adds 2× 12-bit DACs and 3-channel DMA; otherwise identical pinout and peripherals. | Required for applications needing analog waveform generation (e.g., sensor excitation, calibration signals) or high-speed peripheral-to-memory transfers. | Choose only if DAC or DMA functionality is explicitly needed - adds cost and complexity without benefit for pure digital control or polling-based ADC use cases. |
Compared with MSP430F2416TPN, the MSP430F2417TPN provides double RAM for larger sensor buffers and firmware stacks; compared with MSP430F2617TPN, it omits DAC/DMA to reduce cost and power in applications where those features remain unused.

FAQ
What is the maximum ADC12 conversion rate supported by the MSP430F2417TPN?
The MSP430F2417TPN supports an ADC12CLK frequency up to 7 MHz, enabling minimum conversion times of 1.86 µs per sample (per SLAS541M Section 8.46). This allows sustained sampling rates exceeding 500 kSPS in burst mode, suitable for transient event capture in vibration or acoustic monitoring systems using the MSP430F2417TPN.
Does the MSP430F2417TPN include a hardware bootloader (BSL)?
Yes, the MSP430F2417TPN integrates a factory-programmed bootloader (BSL) supporting UART-based firmware updates without external programming voltage. This enables field firmware upgrades via standard serial interfaces, simplifying maintenance and security patching for deployed devices using the MSP430F2417TPN.
What are the supported crystal frequencies for the LFXT1 oscillator on the MSP430F2417TPN?
The MSP430F2417TPN LFXT1 oscillator supports low-frequency crystals from 32.768 kHz (standard watch crystal) up to 1 MHz in low-frequency mode, and high-frequency crystals from 455 kHz to 8 MHz in high-frequency mode - enabling flexible clock source selection for RTC, communication baud-rate generation, or precision timing using the MSP430F2417TPN.
How many I/O pins does the MSP430F2417TPN provide in the LQFP-80 package?
The MSP430F2417TPN in the LQFP-80 (PN) package provides 48 general-purpose I/O pins across Ports P1–P8, with additional dedicated pins for power, ground, JTAG, reset, and crystal connections - delivering ample GPIO for mixed-signal control, sensor interfacing, and display driving in compact designs using the MSP430F2417TPN.
Is the MSP430F2417TPN pin-compatible with the MSP430F2617TPN?
Yes, the MSP430F2417TPN and MSP430F2617TPN share identical pinouts in both LQFP-80 and LQFP-64 packages. However, the MSP430F2417TPN lacks DAC12 and DMA modules - meaning software must not access those peripherals, and PCBs designed for MSP430F2617TPN can host MSP430F2417TPN with full pin compatibility but reduced analog generation capability.
