Experimental Evaluation of the MSP430 Microcontroller Power Requirements
Karel Dudáček, Vlastimil Vavricka · 2007
In battery operated electronic devices, the energy required to execute given tasks set is one of very important parameters. Modern microcontrollers design provides a number of methods to reduce microcontroller power requirements depending on the microcontroller load. In this paper we present experimental measurement of energy consumption, measured on the Texas Instruments MSP430 microcontroller. Conclusions important for the energy consumption minimization are presented as well.
