This repo contains code for transmitting and receiving characters (Strings) serially between an x86 Windows PC and a Microcontroller (MSP430G2553 on Launchpad).The code is written in C and uses Win32 API calls to control the SerialPort on a Windows machine.
-
The Microcontroller and PC are connected in null modem configuration using 3 signals (TX,RX and Ground).
-
The code uses standard Win32 API's to intialize the PC serial port and transmit a character to the microcontroller board.
-
The PC side code is written in C using Win32 API
-
and can be compiled using GCC or Microsoft Visual Studio Express.
-
The Code will Work With Standard RS232 Serial ports or any USB to Serial Converter.
More info about the USB to Serial/RS232/RS485 Converter used in the above tutorial can be found here
-
The Microcontroller side code is written in Embedded C and Compiled using IAR embedded Workbench for MSP430.
-
The Hardware used is MSP430G2553 on Launch pad development board.
