SVSCTL is this registry available in MSP430Gxxx series?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2433, MSP430G2203, MSP430G2233, MSP430G2303, MSP430G2333, MSP430G2403, MSP430G2533

MSP430G series family data sheet mentions SVSCTL registry but I don't see it defined any where ! .. can any one shed some light on this?

  • Hi,

    There are three kinds of main documentation for MSP430 devices:

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/MSP430_FAQ#I_can_not_find_information_regarding_the_peripheral_modules_of_a_MSP430_device_on_the_device_datasheet.2C_where_can_i_find_it.3F

    I believe you are referring to the MSP430x2xx Family User's Guide (SLAU144). In this case the SVS chapter is only valid for MSP430x2xx device with on-chip SVS module such as the MSP430F261x or MSP430F241x, but not for MSP430G2xx you mentioned.

  • Hi Leo ,

    Please check this information in TI website, it mentions brownout reset is supported in MSP430G2433 chipset.

  • Raj,

    brownout reset is not the same module as SVS. If you look into the SLAU144, brownout reset is described within chapter 2 "System Resets, Interrupts, and Operating Modes". The SVS is described however in different chapter 9 "Supply Voltage Supervisor". So basically they are different hardware modules.
