The maximum clock frequency that can be used with the internal oscillator is 16 MHz. However, it's recommended to use a clock frequency of 12 MHz or less to ensure reliable operation.
To configure the MSP430G2413IRHB32R for low-power operation, you can use the Power Management Module (PMM) to select the lowest possible clock frequency, disable unused peripherals, and use the Low Power Mode (LPM) feature. You can also use the Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) feature to reduce the voltage supply to the core and peripherals.
Yes, the MSP430G2413IRHB32R can be used with an external crystal oscillator. The device has an internal oscillator that can be used as a clock source, but you can also use an external crystal oscillator connected to the XIN and XOUT pins to provide a more accurate clock signal.
The MSP430G2413IRHB32R can be programmed using the Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) interface, which is a 2-wire interface that allows you to program and debug the device using a debugger such as the Texas Instruments MSP-FET430UIF. You can also use the Flash Emulation Tool (FET) to program the device.
The MSP430G2413IRHB32R has 8 KB of flash memory, which can be used for program storage. However, some of this memory is used for the bootloader and other system functions, so the actual amount of available flash memory for program storage is around 6 KB.
