Description

The Texas Instruments MSP430F2101 ultralow power microcontrollers consist of several devices featuring different sets of peripherals targeted for various applications. The architecture, combined with five low power modes is optimized to achieve extended battery life in portable measurement applications. The MSP430F2101 features a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and constant generators that attribute to maximum code efficiency.

The digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) of MSP430F2101 allows wake-up from low-power modes to active mode in less than 1µs. The MSP430F2101 is an ultralow-power mixed signal microcontroller with a built-in 16-bit timer, versatile analog comparator and sixteen I/O pins.

Typical applications of MSP430F2101 include sensor systems that capture analog signals, convert them to digital values, and then process the data for display or for transmission to a host system. Stand alone RF sensor front end is another area of application. The analog comparator provides slope A/D conversion capability.
