This allows developers to run applications such as electric toothbrushes, razors, toys and security devices off of a single-cell battery, ranging from AAA to coin cell. MSP430L092 MCU also offers programmable analog building blocks that can be configured as five different peripherals. In addition to free software, comprehensive application notes, code libraries and community support, new tool kits are available to help developers fully leverage the benefits of this industry-first device.
Key features and benefits of the MSP430L092
* Three 0.9-V MCU variations – MSP430L092 (RAM), MSP430C091 (ROM) and MSP430C092 (ROM) – with up to 2kB RAM and 2kB ROM provide multiple choices for a path to production
* Integrated Analog Functions Pool (A-POOL) can serve as an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), digital-to-analog converter (DAC), system voltage supervisor (SVS), temperature sensor or comparator, eliminating the need for external components to reduce overall bill of materials
* Programmable A-POOL enables the various analog peripheral configurations to run sequentially without user interaction, providing increased flexibility
* Tool kits, including external EEPROM, and ROM-flow process guide help rapidly move from development to final production
* Ultra-low-power consumption of 45 uA (active) and wake-up time of less than 5 µs combined with true 0.9-V operation, enable optimized battery usage
