Parker designed a dual motor driver booster pack for the MSP430 LaunchPad. It’s based around the DRV8833 iterated motor driver capable of controlling voltages up to 10.8V and handling current up to 2A. You can download the Eagle source files from his site. This is a Low Voltage, 2A motor controller BoosterPack for the Ti […]

Measuring power with INA219 and an MSP430 Launchpad
INA219 is a cool IC that measures voltage and current trough a shunt resistor, and relays the information over I2C. It provides the multiple of the two values, thus enabling easy power measurement. Opossum used it along with a Nokia 5110 LCD and a MSP430 LaunchPad to build a nice power-meter. Via 43-oh.
