For your second project, your task is to use the MSP430 Microcontroller and your creativity to design a toy. Each MSP430 board is equipped with buttons, LED's, a speaker, and an LED screen. Utilizing these features and your knowledge of I/O, develop a program to turn the board into a toy.
This toy should at minimum:
- generate sounds,
- dynamically change the LEDs that are illuminated, both brighly and dimmly,
- implement a state machine to maintain the state of the toy,
- and use the buttons to transition the state machines
Furthermore, at least one of the functions to transition the state machine must be written by you in assembly language.
Inside this repository you will find two directories:
- The 'demos' directory contains sample programs for you to review and learn from. These example programs are a great starting point in understanding how to program the MSP430 microcontroller. See the readme in the demo directory on how to compile and run the demo programs.
- The 'project' directory should contain the source code for your toy.
Your project will be graded on the following items:
- Source code for your toy (only .c, .s and .h files).
- A README containing a description of your toy, how to compile it, how to run it, and how to use it.
- A Makefile with appropriate rules to build and clean your toy.
This repository contains several pieces of example code that show how to interact with various parts of the MSP430. You'll want to be familiar with these prior to starting on your project. You're encouraged to make changes to the demos and see how they change the MSP430s behaviour.
