TMS370C712ANT datasheet by Texas Instruments

TMS370C712ANT Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended oscillator crystal frequency for this microcontroller?
  The recommended oscillator crystal frequency for the TMS370C712ANT is 10 MHz or 20 MHz, depending on the application requirements.
• How do I configure the watchdog timer on this device?
  The watchdog timer on the TMS370C712ANT can be configured using the WDTCTL register. You need to set the WDTISx bits to select the watchdog timer interval and the WDTPS bits to select the watchdog timer prescaler.
• What is the maximum current that can be sourced or sunk by the GPIO pins?
  The maximum current that can be sourced or sunk by the GPIO pins on the TMS370C712ANT is 4 mA per pin, with a total current limit of 100 mA for all GPIO pins combined.
• How do I use the built-in ADC on this device?
  The built-in ADC on the TMS370C712ANT can be used by configuring the ADCCTL0 and ADCCTL1 registers to select the ADC channel, conversion mode, and clock source. You can then start the ADC conversion using the ADCST bit and read the conversion result from the ADCMEM register.
• What is the minimum and maximum operating voltage for this microcontroller?
  The minimum operating voltage for the TMS370C712ANT is 2.7 V, and the maximum operating voltage is 3.6 V.
