Product details
Overview
MSP430FR2111IRLLR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit ultra-low-power FRAM microcontroller with 3.75KB nonvolatile program memory, 1KB RAM, 8-channel 10-bit ADC, and integrated eCOMP comparator. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V, achieves 120 µA/MHz active current, and supports LPM3.5 (1 µA) and LPM4.5 (34 nA) for battery-powered sensing applications like smoke detectors and door sensors.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430FR2111IRLLR datasheet, MSP430FR2111IRLLR pinout, MSP430FR2111IRLLR application, or MSP430FR2111IRLLR equivalent, key selection criteria include FRAM endurance (1015 write cycles), capacitive touch I/O capability across all 12 GPIOs, RTC support in deep sleep, and VQFN-24 (3 mm × 3 mm) packaging for space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The MSP430FR2111IRLLR integrates a 16-bit RISC CPU with constant generator and 16-MHz DCO+FLL clock system delivering ±1% accuracy at room temperature. Its memory architecture unifies FRAM for code, constants, and data storage with built-in ECC and configurable write protection.
Peripherals include Timer_B3 with three capture/compare registers (CCR0 internal only; CCR1/CCR2 externally accessible), eUSCI_A supporting UART/IrDA/SPI, and an ADC with 200 ksps sample rate, internal 1.5-V reference, and integrated temperature sensor - all operating within the same 1.8–3.6 V supply range.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430FR2111IPW16 | TSSOP-16 package (5 mm × 4.4 mm); 12 GPIOs; identical FRAM/RAM/peripherals. | Larger footprint; less suitable for ultra-compact designs but easier manual soldering and probing. | Select when board space permits and hand-assembly or debug access is prioritized over miniaturization. |
| MSP430FR2110IRLLR | Same VQFN-24 package; reduced FRAM (2 KB) and identical RAM (1 KB); otherwise identical peripheral set. | Lower memory capacity limits firmware complexity and data logging depth; suitable for simpler sensor nodes. | Choose when application firmware fits within 2 KB and cost reduction is critical - no PCB redesign required. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430FR2111IRLLR?
The MSP430FR2111IRLLR features a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with frequency-locked loop (FLL) capable of generating up to 16 MHz system clock. This maximum frequency is achievable across the full 1.8–3.6 V supply range and enables real-time processing of sensor data at high throughput without external crystals.
Does the MSP430FR2111IRLLR support hardware UART communication?
Yes, the MSP430FR2111IRLLR includes one enhanced USCI_A (eUSCI_A) module that supports UART mode with full-duplex operation, programmable baud rates, and automatic LIN break detection. Pins P1.2 (UCA0RXD) and P1.3 (UCA0TXD) are dedicated to this function and can be remapped via software configuration.
How many analog input channels does the MSP430FR2111IRLLR ADC support?
The MSP430FR2111IRLLR integrates an 8-channel, 10-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. Channels A0 through A7 map directly to GPIO pins P1.0–P1.7 and P2.0–P2.1, supporting single-ended measurements with internal 1.5-V reference or external Veref+/- inputs.
Is the MSP430FR2111IRLLR pin-compatible with other devices in the MSP430FR21xx family?
The MSP430FR2111IRLLR shares identical pinout and signal mapping with MSP430FR2110IRLLR, MSP430FR2100IRLLR, and MSP430FR2000IRLLR in the VQFN-24 (RLL) package. However, functional differences exist - notably the absence of ADC on MSP430FR2000 - so firmware must verify peripheral availability before migration.
What debug interface does the MSP430FR2111IRLLR use?
The MSP430FR2111IRLLR uses the two-wire Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) interface for programming and debugging, implemented on pins TEST/SBWTCK (Pin 1, RLL) and RST/NMI/SBWTDIO (Pin 2, RLL). This interface is fully supported by MSP-FET and Code Composer Studio, requiring no JTAG header footprint.
