Surprise boxes
Hello everyone! Today we would like to show you one more application of the TiTAN family boards. This is entertainment for children. To do this, we will need two TiTAN-I boards RFID Reader four RFID-labels or four cards Three servo drives Three multicolored boxes with a lid in which we will install servo drives Add […]
Smart greenhouse
Hello everyone! We are often asked about the possibility of using TiTAN in agriculture. Today we will show one of the options for using TiTAN as a greenhouse management system. We will be able to control the ventilation of the greenhouse depending on the humidity and temperature of the air, to water according to a […]
TiTAN-O
As many of you already know, a huge number of microcontrollers and digital circuits need 5 or 3.3 Volt power. And the devices controlled by the microcontroller can be powered by much higher voltages. For example, a relay or an electric motor will need 12 or 24 volts. Converting such voltages to 3.3 Volts with […]
TiTAN-J
We introduce you a new line of the TiTAN family – the TiTAN-J power amplifier for the frequency ranges 433/868/915 MHz. When using antennas with a high gain (from 2 dBi) located at a height of 1.5 meters and above in an open space, it is possible to achieve a reliable communication range of over […]
Walking robot – TiTAN-Octoped
It’s time to show a model of a radio-controlled walking robot. We used slightly modified models of KL-204 mechanism by bobsax from the Thingiverse web-site https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4463302 and the joystick case by Frederic_JELMONI https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3791343. And we express our deep gratitude to the authors for the excellently made models. Let’s start. We will need the parts of […]
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 […]
How to create an RF generator
RF generator with 16-bit microcontroller MSP430 In our first lesson we will meet: the TITAN board structure ; the CC430F5137 MCU with MSP430 core; with SmartRF Studio software from Texas Instruments. So, The TITAN board is a pin-compatible with Arduino board with a built-in CC430F5137 target MCU and a programmer-debugger, which is implemented on the […]
