  OVERVIEW   

Are you ready to get started with the MSP430? This hands-on workshop is intended to educate the MCU designer on the capabilities of the MSP430 and learn first hand how to use them. You will experience embedded design with the MSP430, get familiar with an MSP430 development environment, learn where to find and how to use resources and better understand the MSP430 low-power concept.
 
The course is perfect for those getting started or need a refresher on MSP430. Basic experience with general MCUs and knowledge of assembler and C language programming is assumed.
