These tutorials are designed as in introduction to embedded systems using the TI launchpads for their MSP430 line of microprocessors. These tutorials are aimed at students with no prior experience ...

Serial communication system between MSP430FR6047 and Arduino Nano. The MSP430 uses a state machine to process commands received via UART and sends responses back through the Arduino. Make sure both ...

Editor's Note: For individuals looking to explore MCUs and MCU-based design principles, low-cost development kits offer an easy, low-risk entry into the intricacies of these complex ICs. In this ...

The MSP430 is a popular microcontroller, and on board is a neat little clock source, a digitally controlled oscillator, or DCO. This oscillator can be used for everything from setting baud rates for a ...

Sometimes you need to toggle or read a few pins on a microcontroller for a project so simple (or so temporary) that coding some firmware is a rather large investment of time. [Jaspreet] had the same ...

Abstract: During an embedded system software development, the process of upgrading and downloading the software to the system hardware is fairly easy, because the platform is not encapsulated on its ...
