Interfacing Alphanumeric 16*2 LCD Display with MSP430 Alphanumeric 16*2 LCD Display Interfacing with MSP430 using Code Composer Studio

This article is the continuation of our tutorial series on programming MSP430 using Code Composer Studio. Last tutorial was based on external interrupts on MSP430 using GPIO pins. This tutorial is about interfacing a display with MSP430, when it comes to display the 16*2 LCD Display, it is the first choice for any electronic hobbyist.…

External Interrupts on MSP430 Interrupts in MSP430 – Writing GPIO Interrupt Program using Code Composer Studio

Consider a simple digital watch which is programmed to just show you time, now imagine you want to change its time zone. What would you do? You simply press a button that changes to the menu that enables you to change the time zone. Here, the system can’t predict your external interrupt to its time keeping processes and can’t ask you to wait since it is busy incrementing the…
