To make you familiar with MSP430 programming and debugging, let us begin with a simple blinking-LED application. For this purpose, it is recommended to use a 3mm or 5mm LED which consumes less than 2 ...

For many applications, programming a microcontroller after it has been soldered to the circuit board in the target application is more convenient than using a separate programmer. With the Texas ...

Texas Instrument's has added the Grace plug-in to Code Composer Studio to streamline peripheral configuration for their 16-bit MSP430 line.

The MSP430 never dies Image: MSP430 Launchpad development system. Source: Texas Instruments. Texas Instruments’ MSP430 microcontroller has a huge fanbase and thousands of students literally grew up ...

Once you have a basic grasp of circuit design and programming an MCU, you might want to explore others. We present a project using the very popular, extremely low power Texas Instruments (TI) MSP430 ...

A media player based on an Arduino and SD card has been done to death several times over, but that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate [Matt]’s MSP430 audio player. It’s a very… ...

We are certainly spoiled by all the microcontroller options nowadays — which is a great problem to have. But between the good old 8-bit controllers and an increasing number of 32-bit varietie… ...
