Adapted from “MSP430 Microcontroller Basics” by John H. Davies (Newnes) CHAPTER 1 Embedded Electronic Systems and Microcontrollers This chapter provides a short introduction to embedded electronic ...

We’re sure there are more expensive LED controllers out there, but the TI-84 has got to be up there. Unless you have one on hand, then it’s free. And then you’ll doubtless need an… ...

The abstraction level can be selected and includes Basic, Power User and Register views. It generates fully commented C code for all F2xx and G2xx microcontrollers.

[Nav] is working on a scratch-built wristwatch. Although it is based on an MSP430 microcontroller, it’s not the ready-to-hack ezCronos that you might be thinking of. Instead, [Nav] started wi… ...

Creator of swim training aids for the fitness industry, Swimovate Ltd. is using Texas Instruments Inc.'s (TI) ultra-low power MSP430 microcontroller (MCU) to drive its Pool-Mate sports watch, an ...

As a free Code Composer Studio IDE plug-in, Grace software integrates into the MSP430 microcontroller tool chain and development process. It is compatible with all MSP430G2xx and MSP430F2xx devices, ...

Figure 1. The MSP430 FR59xx/FR69xx has up to 128 Kbytes of on-chip FRAM storage. FRAM-based solutions are also much better for in-field upgrades that are more common with the rise of the Internet ...

Texas Instruments has introduced an ARM Cortex-M4F version of its MSP430 microcontroller family, taking it from 16 to 32bits, with no extra power draw. “The integrated DSP engine and floating-point ...

The MSP430 chip also offers a power-saving mode that awakens almost instantly, which may be perfect for remote sensors. At a fraction of the price of Arduino, LaunchPad looks like a good ...
