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 varieties, it ...

It isn’t much trouble programming one of TI’s MSP430 chips, but outside of the official Flash Emulation Tool, TI doesn’t make programming one of these microcontrollers cheap. The most common way of ...

Linux embedded development doesn't only mean embedding Linux in a product, it also means using Linux as a development platform for embedded microprocessors. The majority of computer processors are not ...

There's no question that we're fans of the Arduino here at GeekDad; however, that doesn't mean we don't occasionally dabble with other micro-controllers. The Texas Instruments MSP430 Launchpad Kit is ...

Providing a comprehensive software ecosystem for simplified microcontroller development, Texas Instruments Incorporated announced the new MSP430Ware software and resource package. MSP430Ware offers a ...

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 ...

1. The 48-MHz MSP432 MCU integrates a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4F core. TI has higher-performance Cortex-M and Cortex-A solutions with faster clock speeds, which get work done more quickly. However, the ...

This reference design is presented to help application designers and others who are trying to use the MSP430 in a system with an input voltage in the range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V This reference design is ...
