Miniature Electronics: Texas Instruments Unveils World’s Smallest Microcontroller for Compact Applications

Texas Instruments (TI) has unveiled the world’s smallest microcontroller (MCU), marking a new era in compact applications ranging from medical wearables to personal electronics. The MSPM0C1104 MCU, measuring just 1.6mm x 1.6mm, is set to revolutionize space-constrained design, offering scalability and cost optimization across TI’s extensive MCU portfolio.

The new MCU, a testament to TI’s commitment to semiconductor innovation, is part of the company’s ongoing efforts to make electronics more affordable and accessible. By reducing the size of critical components like the MCU, TI aims to enable the proliferation of semiconductors in an increasingly connected world.

The MSPM0C1104 MCU is available for preproduction orders on TI’s website, with pricing starting at US$0.20 in 1,000-unit quantities. A LaunchPad development kit is also available for US$5.99, providing engineers with the tools they need to prototype and develop innovative solutions rapidly using this groundbreaking technology.

Texas Instruments will showcase its latest advancements at Embedded World 2025, demonstrating how its technologies drive embedded systems’ evolution toward a more intelligent and connected future. The event, from March 11 to 13, promises a series of insightful presentations and workshops, offering engineers valuable insights into the latest trends in real-time monitoring, edge artificial intelligence, connectivity for the Internet of Things, and development with open-source software.

Texas Instruments Incorporated (Nasdaq: TXN) is a global semiconductor company that designs, manufactures, and sells analog and embedded processing chips for various markets, including industrial, automotive, personal electronics, enterprise systems, and communications equipment. With a passion for creating a better world through semiconductors, TI continues to push the boundaries of innovation, making its technology more reliable, affordable, and energy-efficient with each new generation.
