Product details
Overview
MSP430F2417TPNR 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), 16-bit Timer_A and Timer_B, and on-chip comparator. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V and targets battery-powered sensor systems and portable medical meters.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F2417TPNR datasheet, MSP430F2417TPNR pinout, MSP430F2417TPNR application, or MSP430F2417TPNR equivalent, key selection criteria include LQFP-64 package compatibility, 8KB RAM requirement for firmware-intensive sensing tasks, absence of DAC/DMA (vs. F261x), and verified wake-up time <1 µs from LPM3/LPM4 modes.
Technical Context
The MSP430F2417TPNR implements a 16-bit CPU with constant generators and calibrated DCO enabling sub-1-µs wake-up from low-power modes. Its peripheral set includes ADC12 with internal reference and autoscan, two independent USCI modules supporting simultaneous UART and I²C, and Timer_B with seven capture/compare registers and shadow registers for glitch-free PWM updates.
Unlike the MSP430F261x series, the MSP430F2417TPNR omits DAC12 and DMA modules-confirmed in device comparison tables and functional block diagrams. All I/O pins support Schmitt-trigger inputs and configurable pull-up/down resistors, with P1–P8 offering up to 48 total GPIOs in the LQFP-64 package.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Core Architecture | 16-bit RISC CPU with 62.5-ns instruction cycle; enables efficient C code execution and deterministic real-time response. |
| Flash / RAM | 92KB + 256B flash memory and 8KB RAM; supports complex sensor fusion algorithms and local data buffering without external memory. |
| ADC Resolution | 12-bit SAR ADC with 8 channels, internal reference, sample-and-hold, and autoscan; suitable for precision analog signal acquisition in metering. |
| USCI Interfaces | Four USCI modules: USCI_A0/A1 (UART/LIN/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0/B1 (I²C/SPI); enables concurrent wired communication with multiple peripherals. |
| Power Modes | Active mode: 365 µA @ 1 MHz, 2.2 V; Standby (VLO): 0.5 µA; Off (RAM retention): 0.1 µA - optimized for multi-year battery life in intermittent-sensing applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430F2416TPMR | Same core and peripherals, but 4KB RAM instead of 8KB; identical 92KB+256B flash. | Suitable for simpler firmware with lower memory footprint; not recommended when sensor fusion or local buffering exceeds 4KB. | Select MSP430F2416TPMR only if application RAM usage is confirmed ≤3.5KB to ensure margin for stack and ISR overhead. |
| MSP430F2617TPMR | Includes DAC12 (dual 12-bit voltage-output DACs) and 3-channel DMA; otherwise identical flash/RAM/peripherals. | Required when analog waveform generation or high-speed peripheral data movement (e.g., ADC-to-memory transfers) is needed. | Choose MSP430F2617TPMR only if DAC or DMA functionality is explicitly required - adds cost and complexity without benefit otherwise. |
Compared with MSP430F2416TPMR, the MSP430F2417TPNR provides double RAM for larger algorithm buffers; compared with MSP430F2617TPMR, it excludes DAC/DMA to reduce cost and power in pure sensing-control roles where those features are unused.

FAQ
What is the maximum ADC sampling rate supported by the MSP430F2417TPNR?
The MSP430F2417TPNR ADC12 module supports a maximum fADC12CLK of 7 MHz, enabling conversion times as low as 1.86 µs per sample. This allows sustained sampling rates up to ~537 kSPS in single-channel mode, though practical throughput depends on channel count, reference selection, and software overhead. The internal reference and autoscan feature simplify high-channel-count acquisition without external support circuitry.
Does the MSP430F2417TPNR support hardware UART autobaud detection?
Yes, the MSP430F2417TPNR's USCI_A modules (USCI_A0 and USCI_A1) include enhanced UART functionality with automatic baud-rate detection. This feature allows the MSP430F2417TPNR to synchronize to incoming asynchronous serial streams without prior knowledge of the transmit rate, simplifying interoperability with variable-speed hosts in field-deployed sensor networks.
Is the MSP430F2417TPNR pin-compatible with any MSP430F261x devices?
No, the MSP430F2417TPNR is not pin-compatible with MSP430F261x devices. Although both share the same LQFP-64 (PM) and LQFP-80 (PN) packages, pin functions differ - notably, P6.5/P6.6/P6.7 on MSP430F261x serve DAC outputs, whereas those pins on MSP430F2417TPNR are general-purpose analog inputs (A5/A6/A7). PCB layout must be specific to the MSP430F2417TPNR.
What debug interfaces are supported by the MSP430F2417TPNR?
The MSP430F2417TPNR supports full JTAG debugging via dedicated TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO pins, enabling breakpoints, register inspection, and flash programming. It does not support Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) on the same pins - JTAG is the primary and fully featured debug interface. The built-in bootloader (BSL) also permits UART-based firmware updates without JTAG hardware.
Can the MSP430F2417TPNR operate reliably at 3.6 V supply with all peripherals active?
Yes, the MSP430F2417TPNR is fully specified for operation across 1.8 V to 3.6 V per its recommended operating conditions. At 3.6 V, active-mode current increases predictably (e.g., ~450 µA @ 1 MHz), and all peripherals-including ADC12, USCI modules, and timers-function within datasheet limits. System-level validation is still advised for thermal and noise margins in high-voltage, high-peripheral-usage scenarios.
