Sixth project session 23/02/2010

During this project session we were getting closer to understanding how the MSP430 sofware works.
In the previous post we mentioned an article from Elektor, for the project discussed in that article they used standard software libraries from Texas instruments.
There is a pdf file with that libraries that tells you quiet allot about how whole the software is put together.
You can find this file here:

There is a link to the software libraries within the pdf file.
It won't take long until we can upload our first piece of software.

forth and fifth project session 5/02 - 09/02/2010

This project sessions we tried to figure out how the software works.
On the Texas Instruments website there are several software demo's free to download.
But meanwhile we heard about an article from Elektor that was about the msp430 and the eZ430-RF2500.
It was in the November magazine of 2008.
That project looks simpler, so we decided that we first figure this one out.

Here is the link to the Elektor page:
