Image processing on an MSP430

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: VSP2566, VSP2582, MSP430FG4618

Hi,

I am working on a project that uses a Sony ILX511 CCD Image Sensor. And the MSP430FG4618 (the one on the experimenter board) as the processor. To interface the two I am planning to use TI's VSP2582 or VSP2566 AFE. I am a novice and just wanted to use the experimenter board to simplify the coding. Is this workable? Can the MSP handle the AFE output? By the way the AFE gives a 12 bit digital output. Thanks for the help!

    I'm sorry to say that MSP430 is not suitable for Image processing application. You have to use an ARM processor kits.

    Hi Shipa

    Should be no problem to detect some edges of a barcode with an MSP430. Keep in mind that this AFE is overkill and obsolete at the same time. For this small and slow sensor, maybe the MSP430s ADC is sufficient. It depends on your application.

    For sure, ARM (e.g. TIVA) is a good choice too. The ADC is fast enough to convert your ILX511 CCD line sensor signal at the recommended clock rate of 1MHz.
