Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1298, MSP430F2013, MSP430F2274, MSP430F5438, ADS1298-MVK

Hello,

I have started with a project of the University with ADS1298 for a medical aplication, so i want to know  which MSP430 series microcontroller is better to use, i really want to choose a correct device, if there is some comments, suggestions or recommendations, please let me know. In my investigations i found a good option the eZ430-F2013, this kit contain MSP430 development tool including all the hardware and software to evaluate the MSP430F2013. I will apreciate your Advices...

 

Thanks for answers....

Cami.

    Hi,

    The 2013 is a rather small device. Are you sure the 2 kB flash and the 128 byte RAM will be sufficient? If you are not really sure you should better take something with more memory. This might save you a lot of troubles. Moreover, which communication interfaces do you need?

    Best regards and good luck,

    Hi edwin, thanks for your suggestion.

     

    look, the  communication interface is a USB mode, and i need where can i simulate the ADS1298 and the MCU, I have like options the MSP430F2274, MSP430F2013, and MSP430G2211IN14, MSP430G2231IN14, if i can simulate this, i would choose  the correct MCU.

     

    Exist a simulator with this ADS1298 and microcontrollers?

     

    Thanks....

    Hi Maria,

    Are you Sammi or Carmi?  There is no 'simulator' that we have to offer you for the ADS1298 specifically.  Some of the MSP430 tool sets do have a simulator mode, but nothing would be directly compatible with simulating the ADS1298 SPI interface directly. 

    The ADS1298 will also be featured on a MAVRK module, which is currently using the MSP430F5438.  I encourage you to review the ADS1298 MAVRK Wiki Page here:

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AFE-ADS1298-MVK_MAVRK_Module#Hardware_Features

    The MAVRK tool will include a software setup for the MSP430 and the ADS1298.  You might also care to look over their e2e Forum site here:

    Hi Maria Camila,

    Please describe your project more detailed.

    What should MCU do in your application? Should it just be a bridge between USB and ADS1298? Or you need some calculations, storing measurements etc?

     In first case I think it's enough simple MSP430F2013 & TIUSB3410.

    But if you need some autonomous measurement system and want to build this solution on single chip with MSP430 architecture - you may take a look at  powerful MSP430F5xxx usb-enabled models.

    Feel free to contact me directly to my e-mail, which can be found in "Contact" section of my profile.

    Ilia,

    I received a note from my friends in the precision group.  We would be happy to provide you with detailed information on the ADS1298 MVK.  As you have probably already seen, we have a modular system that we are rolling out soon called MAVRK.  For details just go to www.ti.com/mavrk.  On this platform we have the MSP430F5137, the ADS1298, the embedded code in an open source format, and a GUI to see it all working together.  While the ADS1298-MVK is in it's final fab cycle - we can support you in many ways.  If you would like to puruse this, you can address the MAVRK group through www.ti.com/mavrkforum or drop me a note at fullman_ed@ti.com.

    Thanks

    Ed Fullman
