  • zy09 reading assigned. Target done by Wednesday.

  • zy10 reading also assigned. May as well start.

1. Stupid UART Tricks ™

  • Load msp4th to your LaunchPad

Use MobaXterm to verify that it is working. 9600 baud 8N1:

  • 8 — 

  • N — 

  • 1 — 

Load this onto your Arduino Nano. What does it do?

/*
 * Receive a byte from the UART
 * and echo it back.
 *
 * Format is 8N1
 */


void setup() {
  // initialize both serial ports:
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  if (Serial.available()) {
    int inByte = Serial.read();
    Serial.write(inByte);
  }
}

  • PC (serial terminal) transmit -> Nano receive

  • Nano transmit -> MSP430 receive

  • MSP430 transmit -> Nano receive

  • Nano receive -> PC serial terminal

Then do sending and receiving from Waveforms.
