3 Hardware, Software, Testing Requirements and Test Results

For testing the TIDA-010935, MSPM0G3507 LaunchPad Development Kit are used to change the GPIOs in real time for board configuration and data exchange.

To automatically test that the correct value is received, two different programs are loaded to the tho communication nodes (each consisting of a TIDA-010935 and a MSPM0G3507 LaunchPad:

  • External loopback: The first data package is sent through the TIDA-010935 configuring the correspondent GPIOs to allow data transmission. After the data is sent, the configuration changes in receive mode to wait for the data to be sent back
  • Echo interrupt : First configured in receive mode after some data arrives, switches in transmitting mode and sends the data back, after the transmission returns back in receive mode.

The first byte of data is transmitted as soon as the transmission is started by the external loopback software. After the data is received and sent back by the echo interrupt software, the external loopback software checks if the received data is equal to the sent data. If so, the data sent is incremented and the loop starts again.

This is a way to automatically check correct transmission of data between both nodes for preservation of data integrity. Connect the 2 microcontrollers to different PCs and the 2 TIDA reference designs to different power supplies, to avoid ground loops.

The software automatically changes GPIO values so that both boards can receive and transmit. In Code Composer Studio™ debug mode, it is possible to change the modulation and demodulation frequency from the 4 possible choices, that is, 125kHz, 500kHz, 2MHz, and 5MHz by adjusting the according variables.
