Texas Instruments CC430 Block Diagram

The CC430 family of system-on-chip, ultra low-power microcontrollers with integrated RF cores consist of several devices featuring different sets of peripherals targeted for various applications including RF networking, energy harvesting, industrial monitoring and tamper detection, personal wireless networks, alarm and security systems, and automatic metering infrastructure (AMI).

The architecture, combined with five low-power modes is optimized to achieve extended battery life in portable measurement applications. The device features a 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and constant generators that contribute to maximum code efficiency. The CC430 family provides a tight integration between the microcontroller core, its peripherals, software, and the RF transceiver. CC430 devices are monolithic with high integration to allow for a 50 percent reduction in package and PCB space compared to two-chip solutions.

The CC430F61xx series are microcontroller system-on-chip configurations combining the performance of the CC1101 sub-1-GHz RF transceiver with the MSP430 CPUXV2, up to 32-kbyte of in-system programmable flash memory, up to 4-kbyte of RAM, two 16-bit timers, a high-performance 12-bit A/D converter with eight external inputs, plus internal temperature and battery sensors on CC430F613x devices, comparator, universal serial communication interfaces (USCI), 128-bit AES security accelerator, hardware multiplier, DMA, real-time clock module with alarm capabilities, LCD driver and up to 44 I/O pins.

The CC430F513x series are microcontroller system-on-chip configurations combining the performance of the state-of-the-art CC1101 sub-1-GHz RF transceiver with the MSP430 CPUXV2, up to 32-kbytes of in-system programmable flash memory, up to 4-kbytes of RAM, two 16-bit timers, a high performance 12-bit A/D converter with eight external inputs plus internal temperature and battery sensors, comparator, universal serial communication interfaces (USCI), 128-bit AES security accelerator, hardware multiplier, DMA, real-time clock module with alarm capabilities and up to 32 I/O pins.

The CC430 family is supported by the MSP430 tool kit and RF design tools.
