The MSP430G2231 is an ultra-low-power microcontroller consisting 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 1 µs.
The MSP430G2231 has a 10-bit A/D converter and built-in communication capability using
synchronous protocols (SPI or I2C).
Typical applications include low-cost 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.
