MSP430FR6989 LaunchPad™ Development Kit

(MSP

‑‑

EXP430FR6989)

The

MSP-EXP430FR6989

LaunchPad™ Development Kit is an easy-to-use evaluation module (EVM) for

the

MSP40FR6989

microcontroller (MCU). It contains everything needed to start developing on the ultra-

low-power MSP430FRx FRAM microcontroller platform, including on-board emulation for programming,
debugging, and energy measurements.
