The World’s Lowest Power Microcontrollers
5
Key Applications
Utility Metering Portable Medical Wireless Communications
The MSP430™ MCU’s low power and analog
integration are ideal for metering applications.
The portfolio offers devices preconfigured
to support single- to three-phase electricity
metering, while others are integrated with special
scan peripherals for flow metering applications.

The MSP430 MCUs integrated analog signal
chain and low-power performance is perfect for
many medical applications, especially portable
measurement devices. Also, the competitive cost
of designing with an MSP430 MCU enables
availability of care to more people around the
world.

The new CC430 is a small, cost-efficient, and
performance-rich solution that integrates RF
functionality into the MSP430 MCU. This low-
power wireless processor is ideal for space- and
cost-constrained applications such as remote
sensing applications.

The MSP430 MCU enables captive touch inter-
faces like buttons, wheels or sliders through its
on-chip oscillators and Capacitive Touch Sense
IOs without the need for external components.
A free Cap Touch Software Tool Suite and low
cost hardware tools are available to quickly
develop an application without needing to under-
stand the underlying theory.

Pairing the MSP430 MCUs small size, low power
and integrated analog with RF functionality
enables devices to monitor anything from heart
rate, to running speed, to the amount of oxygen
in a scuba tank. The eZ430-Chronos™ wireless
development system in a watch is available to
get you started.

Energy Harvesting Lighting Security
The MSP430 MCU’s ultra-low power consump-
tion and powerful analog and digital interfaces
can harvest wasted energy from the environ-
ment, making it possible to create self-powered
systems that eliminate the need to replace
batteries. The eZ430-RF2500-SEH is a
complete energy harvesting development kit
that is available to get you started.

The MSP430 MCU’s integrated high resolution
PWM timer is ideal for lighting applications such
asLEDdimmingcontrol.Variouslightingprotocols
such as DALI and DMX512 are supported.

Power consumption is critical in security
applications such as wireless smoke detec-
tors, which run for very long periods on a single
battery. This makes the MSP430 MCU ideal
for these applications. The high level of system
integration also simplifies design and reduces
system cost.
