Hello everyone,
I am using MSP430F5529 mostly with PC. (Powering the uC and communicate with PC). I am wodering, when and why should I use USB CDC if the launchpad has Application UART?
For example: controlling IO pins with Serial commands does not require USB CDC i think. Using F5529 for data acquisition the Application UART should be enough if the baud rate is set correctly.
However I see a great advantage of USB HID or MSC over UART in certan situations.
Focusing on USB CDC and UART, when do u say that: UART is the right way for this work or I have to use USB because the UART capabilities are not enough. (The latest MSP432 launchpad has only UART and doesn't have native USB support, so I could think correctly USB is not the only way to go. )
What do you think?
