I am preparing to purchase equipment for a student lab and am heading towards the SimpleLink MSP432 Launchpad (to have wiFi integrated and avoid a wifi boosterpack). To make the lab interesting the EDU Booster pack looks good (switches, joystick, light/temperature, LCD, servo motor controller) but this course traditionally also makes use of stepper motors and keypad, so that leads me to to think that I want to buy the Launchpad plus 3 boosterpacks: EDU + stepper + keypad. Can I use 3 boosterpacks on a single launchpad (all at one time)? Thanks.

Hi everyone, I am new here so please forgive if I am posting this in the wrong place. I am trying to develop a simple game (snake or tic tac toe) using the boosterpack mkii and MSP430FR6989 but I am having terrible hard time even getting started with the project. I would also like to know which libraries to download and etc. There are a lot of tutorials for boosterpack mkii but none of them use the FR6989 board. If someone could get me started and guide me the right way it would be really appreciated.

Now here's a set of fancy booster packs! It's a fully integrated automotive radar. http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/sensing-products/mmwave-sensors/awr/awr-tools-software.page#tools Those rectangles on the right with wiggly traces to the IC are the radar antenna. RF magic! The "CAUTION HOT SURFACE" warning label also promises excitement. Too bad they will cost $299 according to the press release. Posting in the ARM sub-forum as the radar IC features an R4F ARM core. Though the booster packs probably work with beefier MSP430 LaunchPads too. Edit: Here's the mmWave la

Does anyone have the test firmware for the original Educational BoosterPack as shown on the YouTube video: It would be very helpful to me to see the code for this testing script. Thank you for any help with this.

This library allows you to quickly and easily connect your LaunchPad project to Exosite's Data Platform in the cloud. It connects your project using a MSP430F5529 LaunchPad and CC3000 BoosterPack. Two software packages are available: the Exosite barebones-template solution and a real-world example in the form of the Exosite BBQ Companion Combination. Both of these use-cases have code available for the Energia and Code Composer Studio IDEs. Present Support: MSP430F5529 LaunchPad Future Support: Tiva C Series TM4C123G LaunchPad Required: CC3000 Wi-Fi Transceiver BoosterPack Optional: ADS1118 B

Buy: The 43oh Store or Rob's Tindie Store. The newest version of the Ethernet BoosterPack is based on the newest chip from WIZnet, W5500. P1.5 - SCLK P1.6 - MISO P1.7 - MOSI P2.3 - /CS P2.4 - /INT P2.5 - /RST Configuration jumpers are on the bottom, PMODE1-PMODE3, LINK LED, and ACT LED. LED jumpers control which LEDs are used, on board or socket. Available on Tindie.

I have few questions for users of LCD BoosterPacks.

New LCD BoosterPacks are here. Both are 2.4" 320x240, one with touch panel, one without. Both feature the same pinout as their "little" 2.2" brother, same configuration options and SD socket. Can be used with my graphics library without any changes! Available on Tindie 2.4 LCD BP v3.pdf 2.4 LCD BP v2.pdf

I just got the msp430G2 launchpad with the MSP430G2553 mcu. For stepper motor driver im using the boost-drv8711 boosterpack. I was able to get it running with the tutorial that it came with. However i cant run it with Energia. It might be because of the enable bit (0x0) but i dont know how to set it 1 on energia. Do any of you have any experiance of this setup ? The motor im running is bipolar sanyo denki 103h5208-5240. My code so far is like this (i used the arduino example, board pin layouts in attachment): #include <Stepper.h> const int stepsPerRevolution = 200; // change this

Hi 43oh! It seemed like there was some interest in my solid state relay board, so I figured I'd post up the design files. Because of liability reasons (being high voltage and what not) I can't produce this, but your welcome to get some boards made and solder them yourself. Be warned, soldering the heat-sinks to the board is VERY DIFFICULT! You'll need a board pre-heater, hot air, and some good flux. Schematic: triac_board.pdf Design package (in EAGLE 6.5): triac_board.zip Cheers!

After couple of years and many ideas, I have finally settled on a design for my experimenter's board. Say hello to EduKit BoosterPack. The EduKit BP comes with 1.8" color LCD and 8 accessory connectors. Each connector provides access to power and 2 or 4 MCU pins and are used to connect accessory boards. Those boards will allow user to perform tests and experiments, and could be used to teach about MCU's. There are also 4 jumpers on the board, which are used to change LCD's connections. LCD can use SPI1 (UCA0) or SPI2 (UCB0,) CS and D/C have also 2 possible connection options.

I am confused about the compatibility of BoosterPacks. According to the TM4C123 pub spmu296.pdf: * The TM4C123 is compatible with the "TIVA C Series LaunchPad BoosterPack XL" * The outer column of pins are also compatible with MSP430 "LaunchPad-Compatible BoosterPacks" In the TM4C129 pub spmu365a.pdf it describes the first and second BoosterPack XL. "‘A’ and ‘D’ make up the outer BoosterPack standard pins, ‘B’ and ‘C’ make up the inner BoosterPack XL standard pins." On examining the pinouts between the 123 and 1294 for these 2x10 pins, none of the pin functions match. How do I ident

Interesting: The MSP430FR4133 reference designs for a thermostat and a water meter come with BoosterPack headers. However the pin-out seems to be only partial. At least it's sufficient to use SPI/I2C. More here: http://e2e.ti.com/blogs_/b/msp430blog/archive/2014/10/16/new-reference-designs-available-based-on-the-new-msp430fr4133-mcu.aspx

Here are two BoosterPacks from 4D Systems, 96 x 64 pixels OLED and 128 x 128 pixels TFT. They both contain powerful GOLDELOX graphics processor, 5 switches, and a microSD socket. GOLDELOX and LaunchPad communicate using async serial interface. The memory card can be used to store images, icons, video clips and data. Work on the library is in progress.

Hi Everyone! Recently, I released a Bluetooth Low Energy BoosterPack based on the BLE112 module from Bluegiga. The full-featured BoosterPack is a bit expensive, but there are a few different options that can make the BoosterPack very reasonable. I wanted to create this post so that you guys can ask me any questions you may have about it. Blank PCB: $10 - The BLE BoosterPack was designed with 0805 components and other easy to solder parts making it easy to hand assemble. For $10, you get a blank BoosterPack that can you assemble yourself. The layout and bill of materials (BOM) is ava

Using my RedBot BoosterPack I have created a small remote control robot. The motors + chassis costs $15 from SparkFun so it's a pretty low cost solution to get started in robotics. On the controller side I use the CC1101L for wireless communication and the Educational BoosterPack MKII for the joystick. The F5529 LaunchPad simply reads the joystick value and decides which way the robot should move and transmits the data using the CC1101L. Here is a picture of the controller, note the CC1101L is on the bottom of the LaunchPad to make the joystick easy to use. On the robot side the F552

I have finished my first revision of the RedBot BoosterPack. For those that don't know SparkFun has a robotics kit they call the "RedBot". Which is basically an Arduino, robot chassis and a bunch of sensors. This BoosterPack basically replaces the Arduino and allows you to plug in your favorite 40-pin LaunchPad to interact with the hardware. Check out my GitHub link below for more information on the differences. SparkFun sells the robot chassis and motors for $15 on its website, using it with this BoosterPack and a LaunchPad is a low cost way to get into robotics. I have started to port t

hi all, I'm trying to use an Ethernet module that i bought called "Ethernet LAN Module for Arduino / microcontrollers with SPI (ENC26J80)". I found a few example for it for different MSP430's but i cant get it to work. Does anyone know how to make it work? witch pins to connect and example code would be great. thanks, Ofer.
