Products using MSP430


Recommended Posts

 

In the teardowns you can see that there's a big sticker covering that side of the SSD. So I guess some of the marking came off when removing the sticker.

 

Probably right if it was printed but it's a laser marking on MSP430. The other devices which were marked with the colored frames in the picture are also still ok.

I tried to look up other pictures of the SK Hynix HFS128G3AMNB SSD. But on the ones I found the MSP marking is just as hard to read.

ShotMaxx Timer to me looks very much like a TI Chronos with a different layout on the LCD, even the microphone they tout as a feature appears to be wirelessly paired to the watch and they do use accelerometer data, of course the chronos had both. To me the only thing I see as not chronos when I look at it is the new LCD layout.

I wonder if they coordinated with TI? In the video he mentions that the data can be viewed on a phone app via bluetooth, which the chronos never had, so it's obviously different hardware, but the microphone+ usb charger looks like it's just stuck on top of a chronos watch shell.

There's a set of teardown pics further down that page.

It even contains the SbW pads :D

Also, there is a chip labeled CC256 4, which seems to be TI's radio chip in the thing.

Amazon likes their MSP430s: Kindle 7th Generation sports a MSP430G2513 under the bezel.

As there's a separate touch controller, I guess the MSP430's role is to control the backlight and maybe waking up the device when the screen is touched.

I got this one in a distribution list about MSP430 I am subscribed to.

It's a Korg synthesizer - and they release the schematics for those wanting to mod it:

There you see an MSP430G2231. I did not figure out what it does.
