Product details
Overview
MSP430F5528IYFFR 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), enabling battery-powered sensor nodes and USB-connected data loggers.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F5528IYFFR datasheet, MSP430F5528IYFFR pinout, MSP430F5528IYFFR application, or MSP430F5528IYFFR equivalent, key selection criteria include its DSBGA-64 package, 47 I/O pins, USB-capable architecture, low-power LPM3/LPM4 modes (1.9 µA / 1.1 µA), and ADC channel count-critical for analog front-end integration in portable measurement systems.
Technical Context
The MSP430F5528IYFFR implements a 16-bit RISC CPU with constant generators and extended memory addressing, paired with a unified clock system featuring FLL stabilization, VLO/REFO internal sources, and support for 32-kHz XT1 and up to 32-MHz XT2 crystals. Its power management includes an integrated LDO with programmable core voltage and supply supervision.
It integrates full-speed USB 2.0 via on-die PHY, USB-LDO, and USB-PLL, with eight endpoints (4 IN + 4 OUT), while the 12-bit ADC supports autoscan across 10 external + 2 internal channels at 200 ksps. The device uses a 64-ball DSBGA (YFF) package with 47 configurable I/O pins-fewer than the 63-pin variants-optimized for space-constrained USB-peripheral designs.

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Compact environmental monitor powered directly from USB bus, measuring temperature, humidity, and light with periodic uploads. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main system controller executing sensor acquisition, USB HID-class data transfer, and real-time timestamping via integrated RTC_A module. Use Value: Eliminates external USB transceiver and RTC IC; LPM3 current of 1.9 µA extends runtime between host polls. | Use Scenario: Battery-backed field recorder capturing analog sensor data at fixed intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes) over weeks.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Protocol bridge with isolated analog front-end interfacing to MSP430F5528IYFFR's ADC and USCI_A0 (UART) and USCI_B0 (I²C for sensor config). Use Value: 47 GPIOs support multiple isolation/control signals; integrated LDO powers external isolators from single 5-V USB input. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430F5529IPN | 80-pin LQFP, 63 I/O pins, 16-channel ADC (14 external), same USB/RTC/timer/peripheral set | Requires larger PCB area; better suited for prototyping or designs needing >47 GPIOs or more ADC inputs | Select when layout space allows and higher I/O or ADC channel count is required |
| MSP430F5528IRGC | 64-pin VQFN, identical peripheral set and 47 I/O, but different package (VQFN vs DSBGA), no ball-grid thermal path | Better thermal dissipation in high-reliability industrial environments; easier rework than DSBGA | Select for surface-mount assembly with standard reflow profile and thermal management priority |
Compared with MSP430F5529IPN and MSP430F5528IRGC, the MSP430F5528IYFFR offers the smallest footprint (3.3 mm × 3.3 mm) and highest board density, making it optimal for miniaturized USB peripherals where space is constrained-but requires DSBGA-compatible assembly and inspection processes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430F5528IYFFR?
The MSP430F5528IYFFR supports a maximum system clock frequency of 25 MHz, enabled by its digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) stabilized via the FLL loop using internal or external references (XT1 or XT2). This allows real-time processing of USB transactions and ADC sampling at up to 200 ksps without compromising low-power operation in active mode.
Does the MSP430F5528IYFFR support crystal oscillators for both low- and high-frequency operation?
Yes, the MSP430F5528IYFFR supports dual crystal oscillators: a 32.768-kHz watch crystal (XT1) for RTC and low-power timing, and a high-frequency crystal up to 32 MHz (XT2) for system clock generation. Both are fully integrated with internal load capacitance tuning and fault detection circuitry per the device's unified clock system.
How many general-purpose I/O pins does the MSP430F5528IYFFR provide?
The MSP430F5528IYFFR provides 47 configurable general-purpose I/O pins, consistent across all package variants of the F5528 device (YFF, RGC, ZXH, ZQE). This is fewer than the 63 I/Os on the F5529 variant, reflecting its optimized peripheral set for compact USB-enabled applications.
Can the MSP430F5528IYFFR operate without an external crystal?
Yes, the MSP430F5528IYFFR can operate using only internal clock sources: the VLO (10 kHz typical) for LPM3/LPM4 wake-up and basic timing, and the DCO (calibrated to ±1% with FLL) for active-mode operation. External crystals are optional and used only when higher accuracy or RTC functionality is required.
What USB device classes are natively supported by the MSP430F5528IYFFR?
The MSP430F5528IYFFR does not embed fixed USB device class firmware; it provides the full-speed USB 2.0 PHY, endpoint buffers, and register-level control. Developers implement CDC ACM (virtual COM port), HID, or custom class firmware using TI's USB stack in MSP430Ware™-enabling flexible class selection based on application needs.
