Product details
Overview
MSP430F5336IPZR from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC microcontroller with integrated 3.3-V LDO, 128 KB flash, 18 KB RAM, 12-bit ADC (200 ksps, 16 channels), dual 12-bit DACs, two USCI modules (UART/IrDA/SPI/I²C), four 16-bit timers, RTC with alarm, and 74 GPIO pins - deployed in battery-powered sensor nodes and portable meters.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F5336IPZR datasheet, MSP430F5336IPZR pinout, MSP430F5336IPZR application, or MSP430F5336IPZR equivalent, key selection criteria include active-mode current (270 µA/MHz @ 8 MHz), standby LPM3 current (1.8 µA @ 2.2 V), wake-up latency (3 µs), ADC resolution and sampling rate, DAC synchronization capability, and LQFP-100 package compatibility for industrial embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MSP430F5336IPZR implements a unified clock system with FLL stabilization, VLO and REFO internal sources, XT1 (32 kHz) and XT2 (up to 32 MHz) crystal support, and programmable core voltage via integrated LDO. Its CPUXV2 core executes instructions in single-cycle mode with constant generators for optimized code density.
Peripherals are memory-mapped and interrupt-driven: six-channel DMA enables zero-CPU-overhead data transfers between ADC, DAC, USCI, and RAM; RTC_B module supports calendar mode and battery-backed timekeeping; and comparator_B provides rail-to-rail input with selectable hysteresis and reference sources.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430F5336IPZR?
The MSP430F5336IPZR supports a maximum system clock frequency of 20 MHz, achieved via its digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) stabilized by the FLL loop using XT1 or XT2 crystal references. This frequency enables real-time signal processing and high-speed peripheral operation while maintaining ultra-low power consumption in active mode (270 µA/MHz @ 8 MHz).
Does the MSP430F5336IPZR support hardware debugging during development?
Yes, the MSP430F5336IPZR supports hardware debugging via the Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) interface using the RST/NMI/SBWTDIO pin and TEST/SBWTCK pin. This two-wire interface enables full JTAG-like functionality - including breakpoints, register inspection, and flash programming - with minimal PCB footprint and no external voltage requirements.
How many analog input channels does the ADC on the MSP430F5336IPZR support?
The MSP430F5336IPZR integrates a 12-bit ADC12_A module supporting 16 total input channels: 12 external analog inputs (A0–A11) and 4 internal sources (temperature sensor, VCC/2, VeREF+, and AVCC). Channel selection and autoscan sequencing are fully configurable in hardware, enabling efficient multiplexed acquisition without CPU overhead.
Can the MSP430F5336IPZR operate from a single 3.3-V supply without external regulators?
Yes, the MSP430F5336IPZR can operate from a single 3.3-V supply applied to LDOI, as its integrated LDO generates the regulated VCORE voltage internally. DVCC, AVCC, and other rails are derived from LDOO, eliminating the need for external DC/DC or LDO regulators in most designs - simplifying BOM and reducing board area.
What is the wake-up time from LPM3 standby mode for the MSP430F5336IPZR?
The MSP430F5336IPZR wakes up from LPM3 (standby mode with crystal-enabled RTC and full RAM retention) in 3 µs typical, measured from interrupt assertion to first instruction execution. This fast wake-up enables responsive event handling while preserving ultra-low quiescent current (1.8 µA @ 2.2 V), critical for duty-cycled sensor applications.
