TI MSP430F2618TPMR

The MSP430 series of ultra-low-power microcontrollers includes several devices, featuring a variety of peripheral sets tailored for multiple applications. This architecture, combined with five low-power modes, is optimized to extend battery life in portable measurement applications. The device has a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and a constant generator that helps significantly improve coding efficiency. The Digital Control Oscillator (DCO) can wake up from a low-power mode to the operating mode in less than 1µs. The MSP430F261x and MSP430F241x series are microcontroller configurations with two built-in 16-bit timers, a fast 12-bit Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter, a comparator, dual 12-bit Digital-to-Analog (D/A) converters, four Universal Serial Communication Interface (USCI) modules, DMA, and up to 64 I/O pins. The MSP430F241x devices are identical to the MSP430F261x devices, except that they do not implement the DAC12 and DMA modules.
