Dear TI Community,
I would like to connect many ADS1258 to a MSP30F5529 to get a high channel count daq device. My primary goal is increase the channel count as possible and get about 500Hz sampling rate (with averaging).
For this purpose I have selected a F5529 controller. I have experience in interfacing a single ADS1258 over SPI (with a NETMF device) but not with microcontroller. In order the get a higher sampling rate, I choose a F5529 for data acquisition and also a data dispatcher for the next HW level.
I think the communication with ADS and MSP430 will be fine, but how to stream the acquired data forward to a more intelligent device this is new for me. I suppose there should be a buffer on the MSP430 side and UART could be used for data forwarding. Whan communication protocol should I use for the higher level?
Could you suggest me a design, or some kind of sw pattern (or even an example code) that I could study how to implement this data forwarding? What is the most appropriate way? Should I use Flash? What are the bottle necks in this development?
Thank you for your answers,
