Texas Instruments MSP430BT5190 Mixed Signal Microcontrollers

Texas Instruments MSP430BT5190 Mixed-Signal Microcontrollers feature three 16-bit timers, a high performance 12-bit analog-to-digital (A/D) converter, up to four universal serial communication interfaces (USCI), hardware multiplier, DMA, real-time clock module with alarm capabilities, and up to 87 I/O pins.

The TI MSP430BT5190 MCU is designed for commercial use with TI CC2560 based Bluetooth solutions in conjunction with MindTree's Ethermind Bluetooth stack and Serial Port Profile (SPP). This MSP430BT5190+CC2560 Bluetooth platform is ideal for applications needing a wireless serial link for cable replacement, such as remote controls, thermostats, smart metering, blood glucose meters, pulse oximeters, and many others.

The TI MSP430BT5190 is part of the MSP430 ultralow-power MCU family, which consists of several devices featuring different sets of peripherals targeted for various applications.
