timg11 0 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 The MSP-EXP430G2 is pretty cheap, but building the whole launchpad into a final implementation is overkill in some cases. Has anyone ever seen a "breakout board" that would provide a layout for the MSP430 and the basic support components around it, and provide breakout through-holes for the IO? This would be useful for "one-off" custom project where there is no desire to fabricate a complete PCB for the whole circuit, or when the IO beyond the MSP430 is so simple (switch and LED, etc) that no PCB is really needed. Ideally the breakout would support the same set of MSPs in the same DIP packages as the MSP-EXP430G2 launchpad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fred 453 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 There is so little needed (one resistor and one or two capacitors) that there's not much point. You can almost consider the DIP chip to be a mini Launchpad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
