6 Hardware Overview

This section contains information about the various onboard interfaces and their functionality and about the various peripherals enabling these interfaces. Wireless applications are facilitated using the capabilities of the MSP430 MCUs to interface with the wireless evaluation modules (CCxxxxEMK) from TI. The onboard LEDs and LCD display give visual feedback. Audio applications that leverage the full analog signal chain of the MSP430FG4618 can be implemented using the microphone and the audio output jack. In addition, communication across components on and off the board has been integrated.
