Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-EXP430FR5739
Developing prototype to log sensor readings to text file on microSD card via SPI. Documentation to achieve this is little to non-existent in 2023. Would anyone have experience or knowledge on how to go about this today? I am also unsure as to what sizes of SD card and whether they are “SD” or “SDHC” are important to keep in mind.
My application requires a “line of text” to be stored on the card once per second for up to 8 hours per day and up to 30 days before having to remove the card for data retrieval and/or power source replacement. I believe that this is possible within the span of a 1 or 2GB microSD card (perhaps even smaller, but I need to double check my math on the size of all 30 days worth of text, etc that is stored on the card before I order it). In 2023, it’s pretty hard to find cards of this size on Amazon or whatnot.
We are currently prototyping with an MSP-EXP430FR5739 board before developing final solution.
