TDC1000-TDC7200EVM: Is it possible to change the source code to transmit TOF data in different format (like integer, float) through UART?

Part Number: TDC1000-TDC7200EVM

Hello everyone,

I was hoping to know if I can change the source code from the demo apps of the tdc1000-tdc7200 evm to send only the TOF values raw without any string and change the data type? 

  • Hi Nabeel,

    Once the TOF data is in the MSP430, you can convert it however you like within the MSP program before outputting it again. However, if you intend to output that data to the GUI specifically, it needs to remain formatted as it currently is for compatibility with the GUI. If the data is going to a different microcontroller there is no reason it needs to stay in the same format.

    Regards,
