Product details
Overview
MSP430FR2475TRHAR from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC microcontroller featuring 32KB program FRAM, 512B information FRAM, and 6KB RAM in a 40-pin VQFN (RHA) package. It integrates a 12-bit SAR ADC with 10 input channels, one enhanced comparator, dual eUSCI_A (UART/SPI/IrDA) and dual eUSCI_B (SPI/I²C) peripherals, and operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V - optimized for battery-powered industrial sensors and medical wearables.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430FR2475TRHAR datasheet, MSP430FR2475TRHAR pinout, MSP430FR2475TRHAR application, or MSP430FR2475TRHAR equivalent, key selection criteria include FRAM endurance (10¹⁵ write cycles), LPM3.5 RTC current (660 nA), 35 GPIOs with interrupt capability, and support for external 32-kHz crystal or internal DCO with ±1% accuracy at room temperature.
Technical Context
The MSP430FR2475TRHAR implements a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with frequency-locked loop (FLL), enabling sub-10 µs wake-up from LPM3.5 to active mode. Its clock system supports multiple sources: internal 16-MHz DCO, 32-kHz REFO, 10-kHz VLO, and external LFXT crystal - all configurable via programmable prescalers for MCLK and SMCLK.
It features four Timer_A modules (each with three capture/compare registers) and one Timer_B7 (seven CCRs), plus a dedicated 16-bit RTC counter. The unified FRAM architecture enables simultaneous code execution and data logging without erase cycles, while ECC ensures memory integrity during radiation exposure or voltage transients.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-power microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430FR2476TRHAR | 64KB program FRAM, 8KB RAM, 12 ADC channels vs. 32KB/6KB/10 - identical pinout and peripheral set. | Required when larger firmware footprint or higher-channel sensor aggregation is needed. | Select MSP430FR2476TRHAR if future firmware expansion or additional analog inputs justify the higher memory cost. |
| MSP430FR2355TRHAR | 32KB FRAM but adds 4-opamp analog front-end and 4x DAC; lacks Timer_B7 and one eUSCI_A; same 40-pin RHA package. | Better suited for analog-intensive applications like current sensing or sensor signal conditioning where opamps reduce external components. | Choose MSP430FR2355TRHAR when analog signal chain integration outweighs need for dual UART or Timer_B7 PWM flexibility. |
Compared with MSP430FR2475TRHAR, the MSP430FR2476TRHAR offers double FRAM and RAM with identical power/performance; the MSP430FR2355TRHAR trades timer and serial resources for integrated analog signal conditioning - making each optimal for distinct subsystem roles in ultra-low-power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430FR2475TRHAR?
The MSP430FR2475TRHAR supports a maximum system clock frequency of 16 MHz using its digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with frequency-locked loop (FLL). This allows real-time processing of sensor data and communication protocols while maintaining ultra-low active-mode current of 135 µA/MHz - verified across the full 1.8 V to 3.6 V supply range.
Does the MSP430FR2475TRHAR support external crystal oscillators?
Yes, the MSP430FR2475TRHAR supports external 32.768-kHz crystals via P2.0 (XOUT) and P2.1 (XIN) pins for precise RTC operation. It also supports external high-frequency crystals through the LFXT oscillator module, with internal load capacitance tuning available in the CSCTL registers - enabling accurate timekeeping without external capacitors in many configurations.
How many ADC input channels does the MSP430FR2475TRHAR have?
The MSP430FR2475TRHAR features a 12-bit SAR ADC with up to 10 configurable input channels (A0–A9), as confirmed in the Device Comparison table and Section 8.12.8 of the datasheet. This is fewer than the 12-channel variant (MSP430FR2476), reflecting its optimized feature set for cost-sensitive, lower-channel-count applications.
Is the MSP430FR2475TRHAR pin-compatible with other devices in the FR247x family?
Yes, the MSP430FR2475TRHAR shares identical pinout, package dimensions, and signal mapping with the MSP430FR2476TRHAR in the 40-pin VQFN (RHA) package - enabling direct hardware reuse when upgrading firmware memory requirements. However, it is not pin-compatible with the 48-pin PT or 32-pin RHB variants due to differing pin counts and assignments.
What debug interface does the MSP430FR2475TRHAR use?
The MSP430FR2475TRHAR uses the two-wire Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) interface via RST/NMI/SBWTDIO and TEST/SBWTCK pins for programming and debugging. This interface is fully supported by TI's MSP-FET debugger and Code Composer Studio IDE, enabling flash programming, real-time variable inspection, and breakpoint debugging without requiring a full 4-pin JTAG connector.
