Product details
Overview
MSP430FR2355TRSMT from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit ultra-low-power FRAM microcontroller with 32KB program FRAM, 4KB RAM, and four Smart Analog Combo (SAC-L3) modules supporting configurable op-amp, PGA, and 12-bit DAC functions. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V across –40°C to 105°C and integrates a 12-bit 200 ksps SAR ADC, two enhanced comparators, dual eUSCI_A (UART/IrDA/SPI) and dual eUSCI_B (SPI/I²C), and Timer_B3/TB7 peripherals - deployed in smoke detectors, sensor transmitters, and industrial circuit breakers.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430FR2355TRSMT datasheet, MSP430FR2355TRSMT pinout, MSP430FR2355TRSMT application, or MSP430FR2355TRSMT equivalent, key selection criteria include FRAM endurance (10¹⁵ writes), LPM3.5 current (620 nA), SAC-L3 configurability, 44 I/O count in 48-pin LQFP, and extended temperature support for industrial sensing systems.
Technical Context
The MSP430FR2355TRSMT implements a 16-bit RISC CPU with 24-MHz DCO+FLL clock system, ±1% accuracy at room temperature, and sub-10 µs wake-up from LPMs. Its memory architecture unifies 32KB FRAM (with ECC and write protection) and 4KB SRAM, enabling deterministic nonvolatile data logging without wear leveling overhead.
Four SAC-L3 modules each provide rail-to-rail OA/PGA/DAC functionality with programmable gain (×1–×33 noninverting, ×1–×32 inverting), built-in 12-bit reference DAC for offset/bias, and independent high-/low-power modes - eliminating external signal-chain components in sensor front-end designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | 16-bit RISC CPU with constant generator; enables high code efficiency and low-cycle-count execution for real-time sensor processing. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430FR2355TRSMT?
The MSP430FR2355TRSMT features a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with frequency-locked loop (FLL) capable of running the CPU at up to 24 MHz. This maximum frequency is achievable across the full operating voltage range (1.8 V to 3.6 V) and temperature range (–40°C to 105°C), with ±1% accuracy at room temperature when calibrated against the internal reference oscillator.
Does the MSP430FR2355TRSMT support hardware CRC calculation?
Yes, the MSP430FR2355TRSMT includes a dedicated 16-bit cyclic redundancy checker (CRC) peripheral. It supports both CRC-16-CCITT and CRC-16-IBM polynomials and can compute checksums over memory blocks or data streams without CPU intervention - used for firmware integrity verification and communication packet validation in the MSP430FR2355TRSMT.
How many Smart Analog Combo (SAC-L3) modules does the MSP430FR2355TRSMT integrate?
The MSP430FR2355TRSMT integrates four Smart Analog Combo (SAC-L3) modules. Each SAC-L3 can be independently configured as a general-purpose operational amplifier, a programmable-gain amplifier (with gains from ×1 to ×33), or a 12-bit DAC - providing flexible analog signal conditioning directly on the MSP430FR2355TRSMT die.
What low-power mode current is specified for the MSP430FR2355TRSMT in LPM3.5?
The MSP430FR2355TRSMT specifies 620 nA typical current consumption in LPM3.5 mode with the 32-kHz crystal oscillator active and SVS enabled. This mode keeps the real-time clock counter and 32-byte backup memory functional while powering down the CPU and most peripherals - enabling ultra-low-power timekeeping and event logging in the MSP430FR2355TRSMT.
Is the MSP430FR2355TRSMT pin-compatible with other devices in the MSP430FR235x family?
Yes, the MSP430FR2355TRSMT is pin-compatible with other 48-pin LQFP variants in the MSP430FR235x family, including MSP430FR2355TPT and MSP430FR2353TRSMT. All share identical pin assignments, electrical characteristics, and package dimensions (7 mm × 7 mm), allowing direct substitution in designs where FRAM size or RAM capacity differences are acceptable.
