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… |

Motion Detector Using MSP430 Launchpad and PIR Sensor Motion detection is an essential part of security systems and PIR sensor is one of the most commonly used sensor for trigging the alarms when motion is detected. This sensor can detect human/animal movements easily by sensing the IR rays emitted by them. We previously used PIR sensor to build various kind of alarms and security systems: PIR Sensor and GSM Based… |
