Description
The MSP430 microcontroller family offers ultra-low power mixed signal, 16-bit architecture that is perfect for wireless low-power industrial
and portable medical applications. This book begins with an overview of embedded systems and microcontrollers followed by a comprehensive
in-depth look at the MSP430. The coverage included a tour of the microcontroller's architecture and functionality along with a review
of the development environment. Start using the MSP430 armed with a complete understanding of the microcontroller and what you need to
get the microcontroller up and running!
