CCS/CCSTUDIO: IDE for ADUCM350 microcontroller/impedance analyzer (Cortex-M3 based)

Part Number: CCSTUDIO
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FG6626

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I'm trying to develop a portable impedance measurement device as part of my grad student work and I wanted to use the ADUCM350 impedance analyzer/microcontroller. Could I use CCStudio to program this? The website suggests using IAR but I am looking for a way to test code on the evaluation board before committing and I don't think I have the money for several thousand dollars worth of software anyway.

Thanks,

Alex

  • ADUCM350 is an Analog Devices part so it is not supported by Code Composer Studio. If you were to use an MSP430 or MSP432 part then you could use Code Composer Studio.

    Maybe something like:
    MSP432P401R
    MSP430FG6626

  • Ah gotcha. Is there another program like code composer studio I could look into? I chose the ADuMC350 because it has an integrated impedance analyzer, which I don't believe the MSP430 does. Do you know of any TI products that combine a microcontroller and an impedance analyzer?

    Thanks,

  • Alex,

    I have been out of the office the past couple of weeks.  I am a software guy so I don't know our hardware offering very well.  Someone in the MSP430 forum may be able to suggest an MSP430 part that could be combined with an impedance analyzer.  Other low cost tools options would be to try out GCC and integrate it into Eclipse, it would not be as nice of a solution as Code Composer Studio but it would be free.

    Regards,
