description
The Texas InstrumentsMSP430 family of ultra-low-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 portablemeasurement applications. The device features a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and constant generators that contribute to maximum code efficiency.The digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) allows wake-up from low-power modes to active mode in less than 6 μs.
The MSP430FE42xA series are microcontroller configurations with three independent 16-bit sigma-delta A/D converters and embedded signal processor core used to measure and calculate single-phase energy in both 2-wire and 3-wire configurations.Also included are a built-in 16-bit timer, 128 LCD segment drive capability, and 14 I/O pins.
Typical applications include 2-wire and 3-wire single-phase metering including tamper-resistant meter implementations.
