MSP430 Microcontroller Basics

The MSP430 is a simple 16-bit microcontroller with a compact and economical CPU containing only 27 instructions and 16 registers. Rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich rich. rapid processing wake up time; the treatment of data and address on equal footing.

Introduction to the MSP430 combines a tutorial approach with a description of the CPU and main peripherals. The tutorial builds from a basic program for lighting LEDs to the use of a timer. It uses the C programming language. The program interacts with the hardware. To demonstrate the special features of the MSP430, the sigma-delta analog-digital converters and timers. Finally, the book gives an introduction to the MSP430 which gives the ARM 7 processor.
