SMBus Design Using Low Power Microcontroller
TIDM-SMBUS
This product has been released to the market and is available for purchase. For some products, newer alternatives may be available.
See the Important Notice and Disclaimer covering reference designs and other TI resources.
Description
This design utilizes existing Launchpad evaluation kits and BoosterPack plug-in modules to demonstrate the implementation of a SMBus-based system using Texas Instrument’s MSP430 SMBus Library.
Features
• Low-power
• Cost-effective
• Shows implementation of smbuslib as Master and Slave
• Uses TMP006 to measure temperature of objects remotely
• Simple LED dimmer implementation using MSP430 as SMBus slave
• Easy-to-use GUI
