Product details
Overview
MSP430F5513IZQER from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit mixed-signal microcontroller with integrated USB 2.0 PHY, four 16-bit timers (TA0/TA1/TA2/TB0), two USCI modules (UART/IrDA/SPI/I²C), RTC, hardware multiplier, and 3-channel DMA. It features 32 KB flash, 4 KB + 2 KB RAM, 47 GPIO pins, and operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V. Used in portable USB-connected sensor nodes requiring sub-2 µA standby current and fast 3.5 µs wake-up.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F5513IZQER datasheet, MSP430F5513IZQER pinout, MSP430F5513IZQER application, or MSP430F5513IZQER equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping to MicroStar Junior™ BGA (80-ball), validated low-power mode currents, confirmed USB PHY integration, and real-world use cases in battery-powered data loggers and analog sensor interfaces.
Technical Context
The MSP430F5513IZQER implements a 16-bit RISC CPUXV2 core with constant generators and unified clock system featuring FLL stabilization, VLO, REFO, XT1 (32 kHz), and XT2 (up to 32 MHz). Its power architecture includes an integrated LDO with programmable core voltage, SVM/SVS monitoring, and brownout reset.
Peripherals include full-speed USB 2.0 compliance via integrated PHY, USB-LDO, and USB-PLL; two USCIs supporting UART/IrDA/SPI/I²C; RTC_A with alarm; and Comparator_B with 8 channels. It lacks the 12-bit ADC present in F552x variants - confirmed by functional block diagram Figure 4-4 and device comparison.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-power USB MCU applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430F5514IZQER | Same package, 32 KB flash, but 64 KB flash variant - identical peripheral set and pinout | Higher flash capacity supports larger USB stack or firmware-over-USB implementations | Select when bootloader size or future feature expansion requires >32 KB code space |
| MSP430F5529IPN | 80-pin LQFP, 128 KB flash, 12-bit ADC, 63 I/O - adds ADC and I/O not present in MSP430F5513IZQER | Required for applications needing analog signal digitization or expanded GPIO for multi-sensor arrays | Choose only if ADC or additional I/O are mandatory; incompatible package prevents drop-in replacement |
Compared with MSP430F5514IZQER, the MSP430F5513IZQER offers identical USB functionality and power profile at lower flash density; versus MSP430F5529IPN, it trades ADC and I/O for smaller footprint and lower cost - making it optimal for USB-centric, digitally focused sensor edge nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum system clock frequency supported by the MSP430F5513IZQER?
The MSP430F5513IZQER supports a maximum system clock (MCLK) frequency of 25 MHz, achieved via the integrated FLL using XT2 (high-frequency crystal) up to 32 MHz or internal DCO. This is confirmed in Section 3 of the SLAS590P datasheet and enables real-time USB packet processing and deterministic timer operations without overclocking risk.
Does the MSP430F5513IZQER include a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC)?
No, the MSP430F5513IZQER does not include a 12-bit ADC. As explicitly stated in Section 3 and shown in Figure 4-4 (functional block diagram), only the MSP430F552x series includes ADC12_A. The MSP430F5513IZQER retains Comparator_B (8 channels) but omits the ADC - a deliberate family segmentation confirmed across device comparison tables and peripheral listings.
What USB speed and compliance level does the MSP430F5513IZQER support?
The MSP430F5513IZQER supports full-speed USB 2.0 (12 Mbps) with integrated PHY, USB-PLL, and USB-LDO. It complies with USB 2.0 specification for device enumeration, suspend/resume, and endpoint management. No external transceiver or clock source is required - all USB physical layer functions are implemented on-die per Section 3 and Figure 4-4.
What is the standby current consumption of the MSP430F5513IZQER in LPM3 mode?
The MSP430F5513IZQER consumes 1.9 µA typical in LPM3 mode at 3.0 V with RTC, watchdog, and supply supervisor active and full RAM retention. This value is specified in Section 1 (Features) and Table 8-5 of SLAS590P, and is validated across temperature ranges - enabling multi-year operation on CR2032 batteries in always-on sensor applications.
Is the MSP430F5513IZQER pin-compatible with other devices in the MSP430F55xx family?
The MSP430F5513IZQER shares the same MicroStar Junior™ BGA (ZQE) package and pinout with MSP430F5514IZQER, MSP430F5513IZXH, and MSP430F5514IZXH. However, it is not pin-compatible with LQFP (PN) or VQFN (RGC) variants like MSP430F5529IPN or MSP430F5528IRGC due to differing ball/grid layouts and I/O allocations - confirmed in Section 4 functional diagrams and Section 11 packaging data.
