Hi,
I have decided to use an ADS1191 (analog ECG front end IC) for a healthcare research application. I have a couple of questions and would greatly appreciate whatever help I could get!
1) I think I'd like to use an MSP430 product to do the initial set up of the ADS1191 when the device turns on. Is the SPI interface the best/easiest way to accomplish this?
2) Once the ADS1191 is operating, I'd like to use the MCU to transfer the sample data from the output of the ADS1191 and stream it to software on a computer via a serial connection. I see that the MSP430 family has a UART mode for serial communication and the current MCU I'm looking at (MSP430G2553IN20) has 2 USCI modules (A & B). Would I be able to use 1 USCI to do the communication between the ADS1191 and the other USCI to send the data to the computer?
Thanks in advance!
Ben
