  1. Thanks
    al1fch got a reaction from thesct22 in Connecting MSP430 launchpad to local broker through MQTT using ESP8266   
    HI !
    No MQTT with AT commands on ESP6266 IMHO !! (among the several AT firmwares I know)
    You can use Arduino IDE (+ ESP8266 core) to flash your ESP-01 with your own application receiving  data through UART and publishing data to an MQTT broker (use pubsub library)
    (WEMOS D1 mini is a good alternative to ESP-01 with it's good 3V3 regulator, some passive components, USB interface for easy developping...)

    al1fch got a reaction from jsolarski in [SOLVED] Firmware upgrading incident on MSP430FR4133 Launchpad   
    I couldn't solve the problem with Mspdebug
    Solved with CCS Cloud on Windows :  On Debug menu  I could launch 'Recovery' then 'Update ' 🙂
    Launchpad is now OK... next step : test again  on Unbuntu 18.10  (without modemmanager holding TTY/ACM0....)
    OK with last Energia running on Ubuntu 18.10 (32 bit   libmsp430.so  coming Energie replaced  by 64 bit one,)

    Hello
     
    9600 bauds was OK for 'old' AT firmwares, check Serial.begin(115200) for 'recent' ESPxx modules.
     
    +only  250mA avaliable -> some Vss drop oup during strong radio +20dBm TX pulses, may cause 'unwanted' resets
    + so called "3V3" is 3.55V on my two MSP2553 Launchpad,   OK but 'high end' for ESP8266 chip (3.6V)

    al1fch got a reaction from igor in CC3200 LaunchPad Pins Map   
    Considering P58-3V3 jumper I suggest to remove it on this pin map
     
    This short is dangerous for this pin :
    -in digital output mode
    -in ADC mode (ADC input not 3V3 tolerant  : 1,8V absolute max, 1,46V full scale )
     
    Maybe we could suggest "Remove this jumper as soon as playing with out of the box demo is finished" !!

    Raspberry PI sounds like a great option, but got to stick to the budget. And the budget is tiny.
     
    On the last Mini Maker fair, I saw a Raspberry PI-looking computer that they said was purchased in Oregon for $10, case included. Any idea what that was? 
     
    Also, I've heard there was some sort of a giveaway very recently, or something that was described as "Raspberry PI on steroids"? Is that still around? 
     
     
    Thank you everyone and I hope this thread is not too OT!
