Using the Sensor Hub Booster Pack (BOOSTXL-SENSHUB) with Hercules TMS57LC43 Launch Pad LAUNCHXL2-570LC43

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LAUNCHXL2-570LC43, HALCOGEN

The Sensor Booster Pack (BOOSTXL-SENSHUB) is designed to expand the functionality of the Tiva TM4C LaunchPad (Cortex -M4F).

Can I use the SENSHUB with my Hercules TMS570LC43 LaunchPad (LAUNCHXL2-570LC43)?

The software (sensor fusion technology) that runs on Tiva TM4C can be adapted to run on TMS570LC43 ?

Thanks in advance,

Paulo

  • I think it should work .. but can't say whether or not anyone's tried it.

    The booster pack pinout is standardized so that you should be able to interchange boosterpacks and launchpads unless the do something very specific with a specific peripheral. Don't think that' the case w. the sensorhub.

    You might have some work to do in porting the entire software though. So I'd pick one of the sensors and start working with it to get started.

    TM4C uses 'TivaWare' (Driver Library) and Hercules has HalCoGen (Peripheral Low Level Driver Generator w. GUI).
    The two are not functionally equivalent so you may find pieces that are part of TivaWare but you'd need to write or port for Hercules.

    Good luck and let us know what you find.
