MSP430F1101A: It is not show the families F1 or F2 in the MSP430 section

Part Number: MSP430F1101A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F1121A

Hi, I have just tried to look for the differents circuits for the MSP430 F2XX or F1xx family but in the parameters searching the families start in F4, is there some change in TI ? I mean, in the MSP430 section doesn´t show the famillies F1 or F2.

  • Hi,

    you are right on the main page we don't promote the MSP430F1xx and MSP430F2xx families because our MSP430G2xx, MSP430F4xx, MSP430F5xx and MSP430F6xx deliver
    - more performance
    - higher integration of peripherals
    - more package variants.
    Nevertheless they are still available and can be ordered. If you look on this page (www.ti.com/.../products.html) you can sort for "Part Number" by typing "MSP430F1" or "MSP430F2" to get a list of all available devices in both families.

    Best regards,

  • Hi Andre, thank you for your answer, but I think that there are not more packages options. I mean, in our case, we work with several projects with a small quantity of pieces, so, the best option for us it is the SOIC package because it is not difficult solder the piece manually in pcb (1,27 mm between pins).
    With the newest pieces and better characteristics there are not SOIC package with UART and/or SPI.
    So, a piece with UART and/or SPI and SOIC package are the oldest c.i. from TI.
    Thank and best regards.
  • Hi,

    I understand your concerns.
    Would TSSOP package work for you? Although the pitch is only 0.635mm (vs. 1.27mm of SOIC) this can still be soldered fairly easily.

  • Hi Andre, we would like testing the TSSOP package, but it is not possible for me asking samples because we dont have an own web. That is because below are our comapany data:

    SISTEMAS Y DISEÑOS DE INGENIERIA Y ARQUITECTURA-G2, S.L. (SYDIAR-G2, S.L.)

    VAT= ES B 41990607

    C/ ALMERIA, 28

    41.620-MARCHENA (SEVILLA)

    SPAIN

    Could you manage send us 2 or 3 pieces as samples for trying soldering manually ?

    Thank you.

  • Hi,

    for which device you want to order samples? For the MSP430F1121A? You can go to www.ti.com/.../samplebuy and select the appropriate package.

    Best regards,
