agaelema 39 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Hi guys, The new Launchpad MSP-EXP432P111 was released some days ago. I bought one and it arrived today . The board use the XMS432P1111 (pre-production version of MSP432) microcontroller, a Cortex M4 with 48MHz, 2MB of flash, 256KB of SRAM (very impressive), 14bit ADC and many other peripherals, like the LCD driver. Apparently, the LCD is the same of other launchpads (eg.: EXP430FR6989), very interesting to understand how to use the LCD driver and develop some projects. The Out-of-Box demo has two modes: - Blink LED, where you can controll the frequency of blink pressing the button S1 and controll the color by pressing the button S2. - Temperature mode: Show the temperature based in the internal sensor (pressing S2), or based in an external temperature sensor (pressing S1), a LMT70, but it's necessary to put a jumper in R8, powering the sensor. There is a online GUI enabling to control other parameters like special characters in the LCD. The finishing of PCB's is impeccable, as always. bluehash and Fmilburn 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluehash 1,581 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Thanks for the quick review. Any plans for it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
agaelema 39 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Thanks @bluehash The main objective is to use this launchpad as part of the embedded system of my thesis related to smart metering. I can solve two problems - A simples interface, like the LCDs present in energy meters - A good amount of flash and mainly of RAM to run signal processing and other things bluehash 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rei Vilo 695 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 @agaelema Have a look at my project of Low Power Weather Station. The LCD library designed for the MSP430FR4133 and MPS430FR6989 shouldn't be difficult to port to the MSP432P111. bluehash and agaelema 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
agaelema 39 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Hi @Rei Vilo, I don't found the library in the page. It's based in the examples from TI? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The LCD library presently works for the MSP430FR4133 and MPS430FR6989 but shouldn't be difficult to port to the MSP432P111. The LCD library is called LCD_Launchpad and included in the Energia 18 distribution for MSP430 boards. agaelema 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
31599_1489253920 0 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I just ordered one of these. Looking forward to tinkering with it. Has anyone got WiFi working with this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
