RTC3 Errata MSP430F5438A?

Hi,

Both the F5438 and the F5438A devices are impacted by erratum RTC3 and need the workaround.  If you find something that says otherwise, please let us know.

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks! I think I read this http://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp430/f/166/p/103048/364844.aspx#364844 and somehow thought is would be the same for the 5438A.

This is not really related to the 5438A but the posts in http://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp430/f/166/p/103048/364844.aspx#364844 imply that 5418A does not require the RTC workaround but RTC3 is listed in the 5418A errata sheet REV H. 

Hi Mike and psa,

Document SLAZ046N (revised September 2011) says that the 54xx non-A devices are subject to RTC3.

Document SLAZ057N (revised November 2011) does *not* indicate that 54xxA devices are subject to RTC3.  That's two months later.

It appears that with the enlightenment of RTC6, the rework of the errata falsely applied RTC3 to the 54xxA devices.

Is there a place I can find old errata sheets on TI's website? I only see slaz290h on the product page

Thanks Jeff and Katie for clearing that up!
