Portable medical devices become smaller, smarter with TI's new signal-chain-on-chip MCUs
MSP430FG47x MCUs provide ultra-low power, high performance and analog peripherals for efficient development of reliable, low-cost medical products
MSP430FG47x key features and benefits
- Complete signal chain integrated on chip, consisting of two configurable op amps, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC), comparator and 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), reduces board space, bill of materials and time to market
- 16-bit Sigma-Delta ADC for applications that require high-resolution signal conversion
- 128-segment LCD driver with contrast control for convenient diagnostic display
- Multiple memory options available: up to 60KB flash and 2KB RAM for easy programmability
- Enhanced portability with ultra-low power consumption of the MSP430 MCUs, extending battery life to 20+ years
- Integrated intelligent peripherals on MSP430 MCUs provide high performance and consume no power when not in operation
- Two package options to meet various printed circuit board (PCB) size requirements: 80-pin QFP or 113-ball BGA, which measures only 7.1 x 7.1 mm
The FG47x devices are the newest addition to TI's broad MCU portfolio for medical applications. TI offers a full-range of embedded processing and complementary analog solutions that help designers create more flexible, affordable and convenient medical devices that improve diagnostics and increase accessibility. The ultra-low power consumption of TI's MCU solutions enhances portability for easier monitoring and treatment of chronic conditions.
Pricing and availability
FG47x MCUs are currently available and start at $5.50 (1K unit pricing). They are fully compatible with the $149 MSP-FET430U100 and the $99 MSP-FET430UIF flash emulation tool kits, speeding development and time to market. In addition, the ultra-low power consumption, performance and integration of the FG47x MCUs make the devices suitable for industrial sensors and handheld instrumentation.
