Dear E2E Community Members,

TI is happy to announce the launch of MSP430's FR59 and FR69 family of microcontrollers.

Today we have (1) 34 MCUs in the FR59xx family in production and (2) one MCU in the FR69xx family sampling with over 40 devices in the family releasing to production in Sept 2014.

We also have a fully updated toolsuite:

1) Check out the latest FR59 launhcpad with a NEW out of the box experience at http://www.ti.com/tool/msp-exp430fr5969

2) This launchpad will be the FIRST to support EnergyTrace++ Technology. Learn more about this new power profiling tool suite at www.ti.com/energytrace

The new platform of products with over 80 devices by September will feature:

1) 32kB-128kB of FRAM

2) 12-bit differential ADC

3) 256-bit AES accelerator

4) Cap touch I/Os

5) LCD Controller

and many more...

Take a few minutes and check out the family overview video at www.ti.com/fram !

I’ve seen the EnergyTrace++ feature in action on 430day (I've been under NDA until it was now announced)
Very impressive, how you can analyse the energy efficiency of your code (and the code flow, on those MSPs supporting it).
The development team can rightfully by proud of this piece of work.

Priya:

It would be good to see an FRAM-based device that would be pin compatible with the F5529 family. It would be nice to have a very low power device until connected to USB, then higher speed USB connection.

OCY,

From the MSP430FR6xx family: The MSP430FR6989 is already sampling at www.ti.com/product/msp430fr6989

All the other part numbers you've listed that begin with FR6x and FR5x will be released to production in Sept, 2014.

The MSP430FR41xx family is expected later this year.

So they are almost here!

Regards,

Priya

And by magic, the "MSP430FR6989" entry got a link to its product page in OCY’s list of possibly upcoming devices. :)

I wonder what fundamental differences the FR4x devices will bring.
