DeepakAagri 0 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Is it possible to use PIN 3 & 4 in MSP-EXP430G2 board for UART and ADC read simultaneously in same project. I am worry about the impact on ADC value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NurseBob 111 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 I suspect the short answer to "simultaneously" is no. And, I also suspect challenging, if at all possible to use for both comm and adc. However, you could use the UART on P1.1 and P1.2 (3 & 4) for comm, then take your analog ADC readings on P1.4 and/or P1.5 (6 & 7). Working with the msp430 devices will be easier to ask questions about if you adopt their (TI's) naming convention since the pins are generally multiplexed and can have several functions.

DeepakAagri 0 Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Very Sad... now i only can use 6 ADC pin out of 8. they should provide different location for UART . In energia IDE UART become more important because of serial plotter. now I am having doubt with ADC pin 7, 14 and 15. I will check and let you know! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NurseBob 111 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 > Very Sad... now i only can use 6 ADC pin out of 8 So, the 'G2 is the only option? I assume you're aware there are 500+ '430 variants? If your budget is limited, you may want to look at the '5529 launchpad; you can have all 8 ADC channels (with a 12-bit adc), the UART, SPI, I2C and significantly more flash and ram for about $2.00 more... Oh, and USB capabiltiy too. Fmilburn 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
