• The CPU is small and efficient, with a large number of registers.
• It is easy to put the device to low-power mode. No special instruction is needed. The mode is controlled by bits in status register.
• There are several low-power modes, depending on how much of device should remain active and how quickly it should return to full-speed operation.
• There is a wide choice of clock.
• A wide range of peripheral is available, many of which can run without CPU.
• Many portable devices should include LCD, which MSP430 can derive directly.
• They contain specialized analog hardware for various type of measurement.
