Hello MSP430 e2e-ers!
We would like to call on the online community to help us determine the future of the MSP430 Value Line LaunchPad development kit. The Value Line microcontroller family (MSP430G2xx) is growing and will soon feature integrated hardware UART in future devices.
With this new feature, we may update LaunchPad so that it can directly interface with these devices. Please, review the proposals here, and let us know your opinion via the online poll. The poll will be open until Jan 20, 2011.
If you have any other ideas or comments, let us know by responding to the poll.
As always, thanks for supporting MSP430! LaunchPad was built specifically with our online community in mind, so we're excited at the opportunity to hear everyone's thoughts!
I would like to see a product like the MSP430G2452, but rather than the 10-bit ADC, the 16-bit SD16 peripheral. Understood that the cost may be out of the Value Line range.
I know this is way late, but if there's any way to use through-hole clock crystals instead of surface-mount, it would be really nice. I'm a hobbyist, and not set up to do surface-mount soldering at home. Including some headers would also be convenient, preferably female.
