TIDEP-0091: MSP replacement

Part Number: TIDEP-0091
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443, MSP-EXP432E401Y

Hi Team,

I saw in the forum that MSP432E is recommended as a replacement for MSP432P. I would like to know if the MSP-EXP432E401Y is a good replacement for MSP432P401R and if it would work well with the IWR1443 EVM and the Power Optimized Level Sensing Demo Software (Rev. C).

If not, can you suggest other MSP alternative?

Thank you.

Regards,

Marvin

Hi Marvin,

I believe this replacement should be fine. Since this device is just being used to power up/down the IWR1443 EVM, you could likely substitute it with any Low Power MCU.

Best Regards,
Alec

Hi Alec,

Thanks for the response. Will the Power Optimized Level Sensing Demo Software (Rev. C) — TIDCDE2C.ZIP also work with MSP-EXP432E401Y?

Hi Marvin,

The code for the IWR1443 device should work the same regardless of the MCU it is paired with. However, the code included for the MSP432P4 Device will likely not be portable to other MCU's, and may need updates. I cannot comment specifically on the compatibility of code between the MSP432 variants. The high level concepts of sending commands from the MCU to the IWR1443 device will be the same for all MCU's, so the customer should be able to use it as a reference to recreate it on another MCU.
