Product details
Overview
MSP430G2353IRHB32R from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit mixed-signal microcontroller featuring 24 KB flash, 256 B RAM, a 10-bit 200-ksps ADC with internal reference and autoscan, two 16-bit Timer_A modules with three capture/compare registers each, and USCI_A0 (UART/LIN/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0 (SPI/I²C) interfaces. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V and supports capacitive-touch I/O on up to 24 pins - ideal for battery-powered sensor nodes and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430G2353IRHB32R datasheet, MSP430G2353IRHB32R pinout, MSP430G2353IRHB32R application, or MSP430G2353IRHB32R equivalent, key selection criteria include its QFN-32 package, integrated ADC10 channel count, standby current of 0.5 µA, brownout detection, and Spy-Bi-Wire debug interface compatibility.
Technical Context
The MSP430G2353IRHB32R implements a 16-bit RISC CPU with 62.5-ns instruction cycle time and constant generators for optimized code efficiency. Its clock system integrates a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO), internal LF oscillator, and 32-kHz crystal support - enabling sub-1-µs wake-up from LPM4 standby mode.
Peripherals include a comparator with eight input channels, programmable pullup/pulldown resistors on all I/O, and dual USCI modules supporting simultaneous UART and I²C communication. The ADC10 features sample-and-hold, internal 1.5-V/2.5-V references, and hardware autoscan across eight analog inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | 16-bit RISC CPU with 62.5-ns instruction cycle; enables deterministic real-time control in low-power sensor firmware. |
| Flash / RAM | 24 KB flash / 256 B RAM; sufficient for standalone firmware with ADC data processing and UART telemetry without external memory. |
| ADC10 Resolution & Speed | 10-bit, 200 ksps with autoscan; supports continuous monitoring of up to 8 analog sensors at ≤125 µs per channel. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 3.6 V; compatible with single-cell Li-ion, LiFePO₄, or dual-AA alkaline power sources. |
| Standby Current | 0.5 µA in LPM3; extends battery life to multi-year operation in intermittently active sensor endpoints. |
| Wake-Up Time | <1 µs from LPM4; critical for responsive wake-on-event designs like motion-triggered data logging. |
| Debug Interface | Spy-Bi-Wire (2-wire JTAG); enables in-system programming and debugging using minimal PCB footprint and pin count. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-pin QFN (RHB), 5 mm × 5 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad (recommended connection to DVSS).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P1.0/TA0CLK/ACLK/A0/CA0 | Multi-function I/O | Primary ADC input A0, timer clock source, ACLK output, or comparator input - configurable per application need. |
| P1.3/ADC10CLK/CAOUT/VREF-/VEREF-/A3/CA3 | Analog & control terminal | ADC conversion clock output, negative reference input, and comparator output - enables self-calibrated analog front-end design. |
| P1.4/SMCLK/CA4/TCK/VREF+/VEREF+/A4/UCB0STE/UCA0CLK | Multi-function I/O | Supplies SMCLK to peripherals, serves as JTAG TCK, provides ADC positive reference, and controls USCI slave timing. |
| P2.6/XIN/TA0.1 | Oscillator & timer input | Accepts 32.768 kHz crystal input for real-time clock or drives Timer0_A compare output - dual-role pin reduces external component count. |

FAQ
What is the maximum ADC sampling rate supported by the MSP430G2353IRHB32R?
The MSP430G2353IRHB32R supports a maximum ADC10 sampling rate of 200 ksps in single-conversion mode. When using autoscan across multiple channels, effective per-channel rate depends on conversion clock configuration and number of enabled inputs - typically 25 ksps per channel in 8-channel autoscan with default settings. This performance is specified in the SLAS735J datasheet Section 6.3.
Does the MSP430G2353IRHB32R support hardware UART autobaud detection?
Yes, the MSP430G2353IRHB32R's USCI_A0 module supports hardware UART autobaud detection for LIN-compliant communication. This feature allows automatic baud rate determination from incoming break fields, simplifying host-to-node synchronization in automotive and industrial networks without preconfigured timing assumptions.
What debug interface does the MSP430G2353IRHB32R use, and what pins are required?
The MSP430G2353IRHB32R uses the 2-wire Spy-Bi-Wire interface for debugging and programming. It requires only two pins: RST/NMI/SBWTDIO (pin 23) and TEST/SBWTCK (pin 24). This eliminates the need for a full 4-wire JTAG connector, reducing PCB layout complexity and test point count.
Can the MSP430G2353IRHB32R operate from a single 1.8-V supply, and what peripherals remain functional?
Yes, the MSP430G2353IRHB32R is fully specified to operate from 1.8 V to 3.6 V. At 1.8 V, all core peripherals remain functional: ADC10 (with reduced reference options), USCI_A0/B0, Timer_A modules, comparator, and capacitive-touch I/O. Flash programming requires ≥2.2 V, but normal execution and RAM retention are guaranteed down to 1.8 V.
How many capacitive-touch enabled I/O pins does the MSP430G2353IRHB32R support, and what is required to activate them?
The MSP430G2353IRHB32R supports capacitive-touch sensing on up to 24 I/O pins (all P1.x, P2.x, and P3.x pins). Activation requires enabling the pin oscillator via the PxIES register and configuring the corresponding PxSEL bit - no external components are needed, as the internal oscillator and comparator provide complete touch signal chain functionality.
