Product details
Overview
MSP430G2353IRHB32T from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC mixed-signal microcontroller featuring 4 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, USCI_A0 (UART/LIN/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0 (SPI/I²C), and up to 24 capacitive-touch-enabled I/O pins. It targets battery-powered sensor nodes and portable measurement systems requiring fast wake-up and precise analog acquisition.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430G2353IRHB32T datasheet, MSP430G2353IRHB32T pinout, MSP430G2353IRHB32T application, or MSP430G2353IRHB32T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4 KB flash / 256 B RAM memory configuration, QFN-32 package with AVCC/AVSS separation, ADC10 channel count (8 inputs), low-power operating modes (LPM0–LPM4), and Spy-Bi-Wire debug interface compatibility.
Technical Context
The MSP430G2353IRHB32T implements a 16-bit CPU with constant generators and seven addressing modes, executing register-to-register operations in one CPU clock cycle. Its clock system integrates a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) calibrated for 1/8/12/16 MHz operation, plus ACLK from internal LF oscillator or external 32-kHz crystal.
Peripherals are memory-mapped and accessible via all instructions. The ADC10 supports sample-and-hold, internal VREF+/VREF−, and autoscan across eight channels; Comparator_A+ provides eight input channels with CAOUT output and slope A/D capability. Interrupt handling uses 16-vector priority-based architecture with maskable and non-maskable sources.

FAQ
What is the maximum ADC10 sampling rate supported by the MSP430G2353IRHB32T?
The MSP430G2353IRHB32T supports a maximum ADC10 sampling rate of 200 ksps (kilo-samples per second) with internal reference and autoscan enabled. This rate is achievable when ADC10CLK is sourced from the DCO at ≥5 MHz and conversion timing parameters (ADC10SHTx, ADC10DIV) are configured for minimum sample-and-hold duration. The device maintains 10-bit resolution across this full rate range.
Does the MSP430G2353IRHB32T support hardware UART auto-baudrate detection?
Yes, the MSP430G2353IRHB32T's USCI_A0 module supports enhanced UART auto-baudrate detection (LIN-compliant), allowing automatic synchronization to incoming serial frames without prior knowledge of baud rate. This feature is implemented in hardware and requires no CPU intervention during detection, reducing firmware complexity in multi-node bus systems.
How many I/O pins on the MSP430G2353IRHB32T support capacitive touch sensing?
The MSP430G2353IRHB32T supports capacitive touch sensing on up to 24 I/O pins - specifically all P1.x (8 pins), P2.x (8 pins), and P3.x (8 pins) - using its integrated pin oscillator capability. Each pin can be individually enabled for touch operation, and the comparator_A+ module provides the required signal conditioning and threshold comparison.
What debug interface does the MSP430G2353IRHB32T use, and how many pins are required?
The MSP430G2353IRHB32T uses the Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) debug interface, which requires only two pins: RST/NMI/SBWTDIO (pin 23) and TEST/SBWTCK (pin 24). This 2-wire interface supports full-speed debugging, flash programming, and real-time memory access, eliminating the need for a 4-pin JTAG header and reducing PCB footprint.
Is the MSP430G2353IRHB32T pin-compatible with other devices in the MSP430G2x53 family?
Yes, the MSP430G2353IRHB32T is pin-compatible with all other RHB32-packaged MSP430G2x53 variants (e.g., MSP430G2453IRHB32, MSP430G2553IRHB32) and shares identical pin functions, electrical characteristics, and package dimensions. Firmware and hardware designs can be scaled across this family by reprogramming flash and adjusting memory-dependent initialization routines.
