Product details
Overview
MSP430F5152IYFFR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit ultra-low-power mixed-signal microcontroller featuring 16 KB Flash, 2 KB RAM, dual 16-bit Timer_D modules (TD0/TD1), USCI_A0 (UART/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0 (I²C/SPI), 10-bit 200-ksps ADC with 8 external + 2 internal channels, and 16-channel comparator. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V and targets battery-powered sensor systems requiring sub-µA standby current.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F5152IYFFR datasheet, MSP430F5152IYFFR pinout, MSP430F5152IYFFR application, or MSP430F5152IYFFR equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specifications, package-specific pin mapping for the 40-pin DSBGA (YFF), real-world use cases in digital power supplies and thermostats, and two validated alternative parts with documented technical differences.
Technical Context
The MSP430F5152IYFFR implements the CPUXV2 16-bit RISC core with 40-ns instruction cycle time and integrated 32-bit hardware multiplier. Its unified clock system includes FLL-stabilized DCO, low-power VLO (10 kHz), trimmed REFO (32.768 kHz), and support for 32-kHz crystals (XT1) and up to 25-MHz high-frequency crystals.
Power management integrates a programmable LDO core regulator, supply voltage supervisor (SVM/SVS), brownout reset, and five low-power modes - including LPM4.5 (0.25 µA shutdown) and LPM3 (1.1 µA standby with WDT). All I/Os are 5-V tolerant with configurable 20-mA drive strength on selected pins.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430F5152IYFFR?
The MSP430F5152IYFFR supports a maximum system clock (MCLK) frequency of 25 MHz when using an external high-frequency crystal (XT1). Its digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) is FLL-stabilized and programmable across multiple ranges, enabling reliable operation up to 25 MHz without external components - confirmed in Section 5.25 of the SLAS619R datasheet.
Does the MSP430F5152IYFFR support USB connectivity?
No, the MSP430F5152IYFFR does not include a USB peripheral or physical layer. It provides USCI_A0 (UART/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0 (I²C/SPI) for serial communication. USB functionality requires an external transceiver or host bridge; TI's MSP430FR2633 or CC2652R are alternatives if native USB is required.
What package type is used for the MSP430F5152IYFFR?
The MSP430F5152IYFFR uses the 40-ball die-sized BGA (DSBGA) package, designated YFF. It measures 2.1 mm × 2.1 mm with 0.4-mm ball pitch and is optimized for space-constrained PCBs. Pin assignments match the 40-pin QFN (RSB) and TSSOP (DA) variants functionally but differ physically - full signal mapping is provided in Table 4-1 of SLAS619R.
Can the MSP430F5152IYFFR operate from a 3.3-V supply?
Yes, the MSP430F5152IYFFR operates across 1.8 V to 3.6 V, making 3.3 V a fully supported nominal supply. At 3.3 V, it delivers 180 µA/MHz active current, 1.1 µA in LPM3, and maintains full functionality of all peripherals including the 10-bit ADC, USCI modules, and Timer_D - per Section 5.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) in SLAS619R.
Is the MSP430F5152IYFFR pin-compatible with other devices in the MSP430F51x2 family?
Yes, the MSP430F5152IYFFR shares identical pinout and ball assignment with MSP430F5172IYFFR and MSP430F5132IYFFR in the YFF package. All three support the same peripheral mappings, power rails, and I/O configurations - enabling direct substitution within the same package variant without PCB changes, as confirmed in the Device Comparison table (Table 3-1) and Signal Descriptions (Table 4-1) of SLAS619R.
