Does Low Power matter? Our answer is a resounding YES!
Some end-products are only enabled by low-power operation. For example, a wrist watch that
cannot make it through a single day would be of little value.
But even when the application does not demand low power, we think it still matters. The trend in
electronics over the past few years has been, "Why consume power if you don't have to?" In fact,
the MSP430 has found many new applications in the last couple of years where end-users are
demanding the reduction of 'phantom load', also known as 'vampire power'. This can be defined
as the dissipation of power when electronic products are in standby mode (or even when
switched off completely). The MSP430 is a perfect fit for systems trying to prevent these issues.
