The maximum clock frequency for the MSP430F2011TPW is 16 MHz, but it can be operated at lower frequencies to reduce power consumption.
To use an external crystal oscillator, connect the crystal to the XIN and XOUT pins, and configure the UCSCTL6 register to select the external clock source. Also, ensure that the MCLK frequency is set to the desired frequency using the UCSCTL1 register.
The minimum voltage required to program the MSP430F2011TPW is 2.2V. However, it is recommended to use a voltage of at least 2.5V to ensure reliable programming.
Yes, the MSP430F2011TPW can operate with a 3.3V power supply. However, the maximum voltage rating for the device is 3.6V, so ensure that the power supply voltage does not exceed this limit.
To put the MSP430F2011TPW into low-power mode, set the SR register to enable the low-power mode (LPM) and configure the clock system to use a low-frequency clock source. You can also use the __bis_SR_register_on_exit() function to automatically enter LPM when the CPU is idle.
