The MSP430G2253 only incorporates the ADC10, apart from having greater resolution the ADC12 does not differ that much from the ADC10. The ADC10 is a 10bit analog to digital conversion and the ADC12 is a 12bit analog to digital conversion. The MSP430G series devices are supplied in a number of packages with different specification and peripherals, there are 2 types of ADC, ADC10 and ADC12.

Texas Instruments ships the MSP430G2253 microprocessor with the latest Launchpad, the datasheet for the MSP430G2253 can be downloaded here

In this MSP430 ADC tutorial the MSP430G2253 will be used as an example.
