Product details
Overview
MSP430F5522IZQER from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit mixed-signal microcontroller with integrated USB 2.0 PHY, 12-bit ADC (12-channel), four 16-bit timers, two USCI modules (UART/IrDA/SPI/I²C), RTC, hardware multiplier, and 3-channel DMA. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V and delivers 290 µA/MHz active current at 8 MHz (flash execution). It targets battery-powered USB-connected sensor nodes and portable data loggers.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F5522IZQER datasheet, MSP430F5522IZQER pinout, MSP430F5522IZQER application, or MSP430F5522IZQER equivalent, key selection criteria include its 47 I/O count, MicroStar Junior BGA-80 package, USB 2.0 compliance, 12-bit ADC with autoscan, LPM4.5 shutdown current of 0.18 µA, and compatibility with TI's MSP430Ware™ and LaunchPad™ ecosystem.
Technical Context
The MSP430F5522IZQER implements a 16-bit RISC CPU with constant generators and digitally controlled oscillator (DCO), enabling 3.5 µs wake-up from LPM3 standby. Its unified clock system integrates FLL stabilization, VLO and REFO internal sources, XT1 (32 kHz), and XT2 (up to 32 MHz).
Power management includes a programmable LDO core regulator, supply voltage supervisor (SVS), brownout reset (BOR), and five low-power modes (LPM0–LPM4.5). The USB subsystem features integrated 3.3-V/1.8-V power rails, USB-PLL, and eight endpoints-supporting full-speed device-mode operation without external PHY components.

FAQ
What is the package type and mounting compatibility of the MSP430F5522IZQER?
The MSP430F5522IZQER uses a MicroStar Junior™ BGA-80 package (5 mm × 5 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with solder-ball interconnect. It requires controlled-depth reflow profiling and X-ray inspection for void detection. The package is not compatible with land-grid array (LGA) or QFN footprints - PCB layout must follow TI's ZQE mechanical drawings (SLAS590P Section 11) to ensure reliable solder joint formation and thermal performance.
Does the MSP430F5522IZQER support USB host functionality?
No, the MSP430F5522IZQER supports USB device mode only - it implements a full-speed USB 2.0 device controller with integrated PHY, USB-PLL, and endpoint buffers. It cannot act as a USB host or OTG controller. For host capability, TI recommends the MSP430FR6989 with external USB host controller IC or migration to C2000™ or Sitara™ processors with dedicated USB host stacks.
What ADC input channels are available on the MSP430F5522IZQER?
The MSP430F5522IZQER features a 12-bit ADC (ADC12_A) with 12 total input channels: 10 external analog inputs (A0–A9) mapped across P1–P6 ports, plus two internal channels - temperature sensor and VREF/2 (VMID). Channel selection is controlled via ADC12MCTLx registers, and autoscan mode supports sequential conversion of up to 12 channels per trigger event.
How does the power management system of the MSP430F5522IZQER reduce system-level energy consumption?
The MSP430F5522IZQER reduces system energy via five programmable low-power modes (LPM0–LPM4.5), a fully integrated LDO with adjustable core voltage, and autonomous peripheral operation. In LPM3, RTC, watchdog, and RAM retention operate at 1.9 µA; in LPM4.5, only supply supervisor remains active at 0.18 µA. Peripherals like USCI and timers can trigger wake-up without CPU involvement - minimizing active-mode duty cycle in sensor polling applications.
Is the MSP430F5522IZQER pin-compatible with other members of the MSP430F552x family?
No - the MSP430F5522IZQER is not pin-compatible with other MSP430F552x variants due to differing packages: MSP430F5522IZQER uses MicroStar Junior BGA-80, while MSP430F5528IRGC uses VQFN-64 and MSP430F5529IPN uses LQFP-80. Pin functions and ball/pad assignments differ across packages; migration requires PCB redesign and signal routing validation per TI's respective package drawings.
