description
The Texas Instruments MSP430 family of ultra-low power microcontrollers consists 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 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 MSP430F42xA series are microcontroller configurations with three independent 16-bit sigma-delta A/D
converters, each with an integrated differential programmable gain amplifier input stage. Also included are a
built-in 16-bit timer, 128 LCD segment drive capability, hardware multiplier, and 14 I/O pins.
Typical applications include high-resolution applications such as handheld metering equipment, weigh scales,
and energy meters.
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage. ESD damage can range
from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage
because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications. These devices have limited
built-in ESD protection.
Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of
Texas Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.

short-form description
CPU
The MSP430 CPU has a 16-bit RISC architecture
that is highly transparent to the application. All
operations, other than program-flow instructions,
are performed as register operations in
conjunction with seven addressing modes for the
source operand and four addressing modes for
the destination operand.
Program Counter
PC/R0
Stack Pointer
SP/R1
SR/CG1/R2
Status Register
Constant Generator
The CPU is integrated with 16 registers that
provide reduced instruction execution time. The
register-to-register operation execution time is
one cycle of the CPU clock.
Four of the registers, R0 to R3, are dedicated as
program counter, stack pointer, status register,
and constant generator, respectively. The
remaining registers are general-purpose
registers.
Peripherals are connected to the CPU using data,
address, and control buses, and can be handled
with all instructions.
instruction set
The instruction set consists of 51 instructions with
three formats and seven address modes. Each
instruction can operate on word and byte data.
Table 1 shows examples of the three types of
instruction formats; the address modes are listed
in Table 2.

operating modes
The MSP430 has one active mode and five software-selectable low-power modes of operation. An interrupt
event can wake up the device from any of the five low-power modes, service the request, and restore back to
the low-power mode on return from the interrupt program.
The following six operating modes can be configured by software:
D Active mode (AM)

flash memory
The flash memory can be programmed via the JTAG port, the bootstrap loader, or in-system by the CPU. The
CPU can perform single-byte and single-word writes to the flash memory. Features of the flash memory include:
D Flash memory has n segments of main memory and two segments of information memory (A and B) of
128 bytes each. Each segment in main memory is 512 bytes in size.
D Segments 0 to n may be erased in one step, or each segment may be individually erased.
D Segments A and B can be erased individually, or as a group with segments 0 to n.
Segments A and B are also called information memory.
D New devices may have some bytes programmed in the information memory (needed for test during
manufacturing). The user should perform an erase of the information memory prior to the first use.

peripherals
Peripherals are connected to the CPU through data, address, and control buses and can be handled using all
instructions. For complete module descriptions, see the MSP430x4xx Family User’s Guide, literature number
SLAU056.
oscillator and system clock
The clock system in the MSP430F42xA family of devices is supported by the FLL+ module, which includes
support for a 32768-Hz watch crystal oscillator, an internal digitally-controlled oscillator (DCO), and a
high-frequency crystal oscillator. The FLL+ clock module is designed to meet the requirements of both low
system cost and low power consumption. The FLL+ features digital frequency locked loop (FLL) hardware that,
in conjunction with a digital modulator, stabilizes the DCO frequency to a programmable multiple of the watch
crystal frequency. The internal DCO provides a fast turn-on clock source and stabilizes in less than 6 μs. The
FLL+ module provides the following clock signals:
D
D
D
D
Auxiliary clock (ACLK), sourced from a 32768-Hz watch crystal or a high-frequency crystal.
Main clock (MCLK), the system clock used by the CPU.
Sub-Main clock (SMCLK), the subsystem clock used by the peripheral modules.
ACLK/n, the buffered output of ACLK, ACLK/2, ACLK/4, or ACLK/8.
brownout, supply voltage supervisor (SVS)
The brownout circuit is implemented to provide the proper internal reset signal to the device during power on
and power off. The SVS circuitry detects if the supply voltage drops below a user-selectable level and supports
both supply-voltage supervision (the device is automatically reset) and supply-voltage monitoring (SVM) (the
device is not automatically reset).
The CPU begins code execution after the brownout circuit releases the device reset. However, VCC may not
have ramped to VCC(min) at that time. The user must ensure the default FLL+ settings are not changed until VCC
reaches VCC(min). If desired, the SVS circuit can be used to determine when VCC reaches VCC(min).
digital I/O
There are two 8-bit I/O ports implemented—ports P1 and P2 (only six P2 I/O signals are available on external
pins):
D
D
D
D
All individual I/O bits are independently programmable.
Any combination of input, output, and interrupt conditions is possible.
Edge-selectable interrupt input capability for all the eight bits of port P1 and six bits of P2.
Read/write access to port-control registers is supported by all instructions.
NOTE:
Six bits of port P2 (P2.0 to P2.5) are available on external pins, but all control and data bits for port
P2 are implemented.
Basic Timer1
The Basic Timer1 has two independent 8-bit timers that can be cascaded to form a 16-bit timer/counter. Both
timers can be read and written by software. The Basic Timer1 can be used to generate periodic interrupts and
clock for the LCD module.
LCD drive
The LCD driver generates the segment and common signals required to drive an LCD display. The LCD
controller has dedicated data memory to hold segment drive information. Common and segment signals are
generated as defined by the mode. Static, 2-MUX, 3-MUX, and 4-MUX LCDs are supported by this peripheral.

watchdog timer (WDT+)
The primary function of the WDT+ module is to perform a controlled system restart after a software problem
occurs. If the selected time interval expires, a system reset is generated. If the watchdog function is not needed
in an application, the module can be configured as an interval timer and can generate interrupts at selected time
intervals.
Timer_A3
Timer_A3 is a 16-bit timer/counter with three capture/compare registers. Timer_A3 can support multiple
capture/compares, PWM outputs, and interval timing. Timer_A3 also has extensive interrupt capabilities.
Interrupts may be generated from the counter on overflow conditions and from each of the capture/compare
registers.

universal synchronous/asynchronous receive transmit (USART)
The MSP430F42xA devices have one hardware USART peripheral module (USART0) that is used for serial
data communication. The USART supports synchronous SPI (3 or 4 pin) and asynchronous UART
communication protocols, using double-buffered transmit and receive channels.
hardware multiplier
The multiplication operation is supported by a dedicated peripheral module. The module performs 16×16,
16×8, 8×16, and 8×8 bit operations. The module is capable of supporting signed and unsigned multiplication,
as well as signed and unsigned multiply and accumulate operations. The result of an operation can be accessed
immediately after the operands have been loaded into the peripheral registers. No additional clock cycles are
required.
SD16
The SD16 module integrates three independent 16-bit sigma-delta A/D converters, internal temperature sensor,
and built-in voltage reference. Each channel is designed with a fully differential analog input pair and
programmable gain amplifier input stage.

NOTE 1: The signal applied to the USART0 receive signal/terminal (URXD0) should meet the timing requirements of t(τ) to ensure that the URXS

NOTES: 1. The current consumption of the brownout module is already included in the ICC current consumption data. The voltage level
V(B_IT--) + Vhys(B_IT--) is ≤ 1.8 V.
2. During power up, the CPU begins code execution following a period of td(BOR) after VCC = V(B_IT--) + Vhys(B_IT--).
The default FLL+ settings must not be changed until VCC ≥ VCC(min), where VCC(min) is the minimum supply voltage for the desired
operating frequency. See the MSP430x4xx Family User’s Guide (SLAU056) for more information on the brownout/SVS circuit.

NOTES: 1. The parasitic capacitance from the package and board may be estimated to be 2pF. The effective load capacitor for the crystal is
(CXIN x CXOUT) / (CXIN + CXOUT). It is independent of XTS_FLL.
2. To improve EMI on the low-power LFXT1 oscillator, particularly in the LF mode (32 kHz), the following guidelines must be
observed:
• Keep as short a trace as possible between the ’F42xA and the crystal.
• Design a good ground plane around oscillator pins.
• Prevent crosstalk from other clock or data lines into oscillator pins XIN and XOUT.
• Avoid running PCB traces underneath or adjacent to XIN an XOUT pins.
• Use assembly materials and praxis to avoid any parasitic load on the oscillator XIN and XOUT pins.
• If conformal coating is used, ensure that it does not induce capacitive/resistive leakage between the oscillator pins.
• Do not route the XOUT line to the JTAG header to support the serial programming adapter as shown in other documentation.
This signal is no longer required for the serial programming adapter.
3. Applies only when using an external logic-level clock source. XTS_FLL must be set. Not applicable when using a crystal or resonator.
4. External capacitance is recommended for precision real-time clock applications, OSCCAPx = 0h.

NOTES: 1. The cumulative programming time must not be exceeded when writing to a 64-byte flash block. This parameter applies to all
programming methods: individual word/byte write and block write modes.
2. The mass erase duration generated by the flash timing generator is at least 11.1 ms ( = 5297x1/fFTG,max = 5297x1/476 kHz). To
achieve the required cumulative mass erase time the flash controller’s mass erase operation can be repeated until this time is met.
(A worst case minimum of 19 cycles are required).
3. These values are hardwired into the flash controller’s state machine (tFTG = 1/fFTG).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
JTAG fuse check mode
MSP430 devices that have the fuse on the TDI/TCLK terminal have a fuse check mode that tests the continuity
of the fuse the first time the JTAG port is accessed after a power-on reset (POR). When activated, a fuse check
current, ITF, of 1.8 mA at 3 V can flow from the TDI/TCLK pin to ground if the fuse is not burned. Care must be
taken to avoid accidentally activating the fuse check mode and increasing overall system power consumption.
Activation of the fuse check mode occurs with the first negative edge on the TMS pin after power up or if the
TMS is being held low during power up. The second positive edge on the TMS pin deactivates the fuse check
mode. After deactivation, the fuse check mode remains inactive until another POR occurs. After each POR the
fuse check mode has the potential to be activated.
The fuse check current only flows when the fuse check mode is active and the TMS pin is in a low state (see
Figure 14). Therefore, the additional current flow can be prevented by holding the TMS pin high (default
condition).
The JTAG pins are terminated internally, and therefore do not require external termination.

Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check
http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements
for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered
at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and
package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS
compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame
retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material)

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, modifications, enhancements, improvements,
and other changes to its products and services at any time and to discontinue any product or service without notice. Customers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All products are
sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s standard
warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where
mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask work right,
or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such products or services or a
warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual
property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied
by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive
business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional
restrictions.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all
express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not
responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably
be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing
such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and
acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products
and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be
provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in
such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at
the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are
designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated
products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
