[Nav] is working on a scratch-built wristwatch. Although it is based on an MSP430 microcontroller, it’s not the ready-to-hack ezCronos that you might be thinking of. Instead, [Nav] started with ...

Residing in a Universal Serial Bus (USB) stick, the device serves as an emulator that allows new users and experienced developers to evaluate the company's power-stingy MSP430 microcontroller ...

In summary, it is a particularly straightforward 16-bit processor with a von Neumann architecture ... typically spend much of their time on such operations. The MSP430 is the simplest microcontroller ...

There are dozens of different ARM cores alone, hundreds of 8051 clones, and weirder stuff including the Cypress PSoC and TI’s MSP430. Which one is best? Which microcontroller that costs under a ...

Texas Instruments has introduced an ARM Cortex-M4F version of its MSP430 microcontroller family, taking it from 16 to 32bits, with no extra power draw. “The integrated DSP engine and floating-point ...

This lack of dominant microcontroller architecture has effectively prevented a common embedded microcontroller platform from developing, unlike the standards we rely on in the desktop PC world. I have ...
