Workshops

The MSP430 is a mixed-signal microcontroller family from Texas Instruments, built around a 16-bit CPU, it is designed for low cost and low power consumption embedded applications. The electric current drawn in idle mode of MSP430 can be less than 1 µA with a top CPU speed of 25 MHz. MSP430 also uses six different low-power modes, which can disable unneeded clocks and CPU. Additionally, the MSP430 is capable of wake-up times below 1 microsecond, allowing the microcontroller to stay in sleep mode longer, minimizing its average current consumption. This kit also includes peripheral options include comparators (that can be used with the timers to do simple ADC), on-chip op- amps for signal conditioning, 12-bit DAC, LCD driver, a hardware multiplier, USB, and DMA for ADC results. Apart from some older EPROM (MSP430E3xx) and high volume mask ROM (MSP430Cxxx) versions, all of the devices are in-system programmable via JTAG (full four-wire or Spy-Bi-Wire) or a built-in bootstrap loader (BSL) using UART such as RS232, or USB on devices with USB support.
