TDC7200

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529, TDC7200

Hi Vishy,

I would like to operate the TDC 7200 with the Lanchpad MSP430F5529 alone without GUI with devault settings.
With the firmware demo2_tdc7200_usb does not work. It only works with the GUI. Which then shows revision: 1.10.
What do I need to change?

  • Frank,
    To work without GUI, you can try the following:
    a) In function "InitMCU()" of main.c, disable USB related calls: USB_init, USB_setEnabledEvents(), etc.
    b) Make sure TDC720x_reg_init function has the right initialization you need
    c) Since GUI is not there, you have to explicitly set the flags like "tof_graph_state" explicitly in your code. These flags are normally set by GUI communication commands (see host_interface.c and host_interface.h files) and examined by the timer code (in timer_queue.c file) to run "single_shot_measure_state" or continuous "tof_graph_state" and collect data
    d) Measurement results are sent through function "USBCommunicationTask()" in main.c. Since USB is disabled, you have to simplify this function and use only the portion of code that examines if XY_BufferReady is true and send out the calculated data.

    Thanks,
    Vishy
