AIM:-
a) To get introduced with Switch Segment Common Cathode display with MSP430.
b) To get introduced with Switch Segment Common Anode display with MSP430.

SIMULATOR USED:

Code Composer Studio:- Code Composer Studio™ software is an integrated

development environment (IDE) that supports TI's microcontroller (MCU) and
embedded processor portfolios. Code Composer Studio software comprises a suite of
tools used to develop and debug embedded applications. The software includes an
optimizing C/C++ compiler, source code editor, project build environment, debugger,
profiler and many other features. The intuitive IDE provides a single-user interface that
takes you through each step of the application development flow. Familiar tools and
interfaces let you get started faster than ever before. Code Composer Studio software
combines the advantages of the Eclipse software framework with advanced embedded-
debug capabilities from TI resulting in a compelling feature-rich development
environment for embedded developers.

MSP430:- The MSP430 is a 16-bit microcontroller that has a number of special

features not commonly available with other microcontrollers: Complete system on-a-
chip — includes LCD control, ADC, I/O ports, ROM, RAM, basic timer, watchdog
timer, UART, etc. Extremely low power consumption — only 4.2 nW per instruction,
typical High speed — 300 ns per instruction @ 3.3 MHz clock, in register and register
addressing mode RISC structure — 27 core instructions Orthogonal architecture (any
instruction with any addressing mode) Seven addressing modes for the source
operand Four addressing modes for the destination operand Constant generator for
the most often used constants (–1, 0, 1, 2, 4, 8) Only one external crystal required —
a frequency locked loop (FLL) oscillator derives all internal clocks Full real-time
capability — stable, nominal system clock frequency is available after only six clocks
when the MSP430 is restored from low-power mode (LPM) 3; — no waiting for the
main crystal to begin oscillation and stabilize The 27 core instructions combined with
these special features make it easy to program the MSP430 in assembler or in C, and
provide exceptional flexibility and functionality. For example, even with a relatively low
instruction count of 27, the MSP430 is capable of emulating almost the complete
instruction set of the legendary .

DISCUSSION
We need to always check the COM-Port Number before Building the project and make sure
power LED is Glowing.
In Case “A” after Building the project on MSP430 the Common Cathode Display shows “0”
and when we press the switch on project board then the Number on display changes.
Hexadecimal numbers from “0” to “F” are displayed on the Display.
In Case “B” we changed connection of common pins of Display to Power and after Building
the project on MSP430 the Common Anode Display shows “0” and when we press the switch
on project board then the Number on display changes. Hexadecimal numbers from “0” to “F”
are displayed on the Display.
For both the display circuit we should press the switch gently and toggle it slowly to avoid
switch bouncing.
