Sub-1GHz vs 2.4GHz
Many ask the question, when developing their data transmission systems: “Which is better, Sub-1GHz or 2.4GHz”? Let’s try to figure it out, and everyone will choose their own path. Let’s start with the fact that the range of microcontrollers with these frequency ranges is quite wide. There is a great variety of development and debugging […]
PWR-SWR MSP430 core
We want to demonstrate PWR-SWR MSP430 core. A device for measuring transmitted power and standing wave ratio (PWR+SWR meter) based on the TiTAN board based on the MSP430 core. The TiTAN board generates a 433 MHz radio frequency with an output power of +10 dBm. The signal is fed to a high-frequency amplifier +12.5dBm. We […]
Lesson 4 (Part 2): Work with RTC, I2C (LCD), radio
Hello everyone! In this lesson, we will continue to study the CC430F5137 microcontroller on the MSP430 core on which the TiTAN and TiTAN-I boards are based. We will learn how to work with an LCD display with a parallel HD44780 interface and a CC1101 radio interface. As a result we will get this stand We […]
Lesson 4 (Part 1): Work with RTC, I2C (LCD), radio
Hello everyone! Our new lesson will be much more difficult than the previous ones. We will learn how to work with two types of LCD displays: the HD44780 parallel interface and the I2C serial interface, the real-time clock (RTC), and the CC1101 radio interface integrated into the CC430F5137 on which the TiTAN and TiTAN-I boards […]
Lesson 3: What is MSP430?
What is MSP430? Let’s find out! If you want to know what is MSP430, this description is for you. This description is intended for those who are not yet familiar with the architecture of microcontrollers with the MSP430 core and who really wants to find out what is MSP430. All microcontroller cores are similar in […]
Lesson 2: Timers and interrupts
Hello everybody! In the previous lessons, we were introduced to the TiTAN family development board based on MSP430 and two development environments from Texas Instruments. We hope you have chosen the most convenient one for you. So, we have learned how to configure the microcontroller pins to control the led, and how to turn it […]
Lesson 1 (Part 2): MSP430 How to Work with the LED.
The second part of the lesson will focus on the second development environment for microcontrollers with the MSP430 core, which is the basis for the TiTAN boards.
Lesson 1 (Part 1): MSP430 Work with the LED
MSP430 Work with the LED This article for those who wants to find out how to work with the LED You can find the software «TiTAN_example_01_simply_led_blink» at the link https://titan-project.com/en/software/ This lesson will focus on two development environments for microcontrollers with the MSP430 core, which is the basis for TiTAN boards. For this reason, this lesson will […]
