4.2 ON-BOARD INTERFACES:

4.2.1 Slide Switch (SW1):
The slide switch SW1 is used for programming the flash memory. When this switch
is in PROG mode on the board the pin /RST/NMI (Pin-94 of U1) goes low forcing the
on-chip boot loader execution. When the switch SW1 is in RUN mode the pin /RST/NMI
is released high through a resistor and user application will be executed.

4.2.2 Serial Interface:
The board has a USB B-TYPE serial communication port. The Tx and Rx signals
that appear on the USB B-TYPE connector CN17. Use a standard USB TO B-TYPE cable
to connect the board to the computer's use USB port connector. The controller device
MSP430F449 (U1) supplies serial I/O data at TTL levels to the FT232R device (U15).

4.2.4 Six Digit Multiplexed 7-Segment Displays:
There are six multiplexed 7-segment display units (U16, U17, U18, U19,
U20 and U21) on the board. Each display has 8-inputs SEG-A (Pin-7), SEG-B (Pin-6),
SEG-C (Pin-4), SEG-D (Pin-2), SEG-E (Pin-1), SEG-F (Pin-9), SEG-G (Pin-10) and SEG-
H (Pin-5) and the remaining pins pin-3 & pin-8 are Common Cathode CC. These
segments are common cathode type hence active high devices. The port lines P2.4 to
P2.7 are used to select one of the four digits as shown in the table below. These signals
P2.4 to P2.7 are used as inputs to the 74LS145 (U3) and the output lines of the
decoder are used as enable lines for six 7-segment displays. The port lines P3.0 to P3.7
are used as segment lines for the six digits through the 74HCT244 buffer (U4).


Selection Of seven segment displays:

P2.7 P2.6 P2.5 P2.4 Display unit
selected
0 0 0 0 U16
0 0 0 1 U17
0 0 1 0 U18
0 0 1 1 U19

0 1 0 0 U20
0 1 0 1 U21

4.2.5 Keypad (4 Rows X 4 Columns):
The switches 0 to F are organized as 4 rows X 4 columns matrix. One end of all
the switches are connected to port lines P2.4 P2.7, which are configured as columns.
The other end of the matrix is connected to the port lines P2.0 P2.3 which are
configured as rows. The interface diagram for keypad is shown below.

Operation: Initially take one column line to logic HIGH, then check for each row. If
first row is at logic '0' and other rows are at logic '1' then save the read data and
compare with the look-up table. Similarly repeat the procedure for all the columns

4.2.6 Temperature Sensor (LM335 D14) & 12-Bit ADC:
The channel-0 of the 8-channel 8-bit ADC device U9 (ADC0809) is connected to
the preset voltage (POT R33) varying from 0V to 4.5V. The Channel-1 is connected to
the Relay mate to feed the analog channel externally (Before feeding any channel make
sure it not more than 5V). The temperature sensor device used in this interfacing block
is LM335 (D11). The sensor device is connected to the Channel 2 (CH2) of the
ADC0809 (U9). The port lines PX.1, PX.2 & PX.3 are used for Channel selection. The
circuit diagram for ADC interface is as shown in next page.

4.2.7 High Current Output Lines and Relay Interface:
Any of the 3 ports can be used for High Current applications where a stepper
motor, a Dc motor are interfaced through the high current driver ULN2803. These lines
will have high current (max 300 mA) with low voltage level of 0.7V.
The Stepper motor can be interfaced to the board by connecting it to the
Powermate PM1. The rotating direction of the stepper motor can be changed.
The DC Motor can also be interfaced to the board by connecting it to the Relay
mate RM4. The direction of the rotation can be changed through software.



4.2.8 ELEVATOR:
An elevator presents typical problem to logic designers. A number of situations
like the occurrence of simultaneous requests, the assignment of priorities & the logging
of requests are frequently encountered.

The control & operation of an elevator within a building, having three floors is
simulated by this interface. A key & corresponding RED LED indicator serves as a
request button & request status indicator. A row of LEDs indicate the position of the
elevator within the shaft. The Green LED when lit indicates that the elevator is at a
floor. The servicing of a request can be indicated by clearing the request (turning OFF
the request indicator flip-flop).

A four line to 10 line decoder is used to specify the location of the elevator
within the shaft. When the four inputs to the decoder are sequenced through the binary
codes, corresponding to 0 to 9 with a time interval between transitions, the elevator is
seen to move. Two dual D flip-flops are used to sense requests & output the status. A
request is cleared through the clear inputs of the flip-flops.

The elevator starts at the ground floor & moves up to the top. The requests are
sensed each time the lift position is changed. Once the elevator has moved to the top
all the requests are cleared.

4.2.9 DAC (DAC0800)
DAC0800 is used to convert the digital data into analog signals. Digital data from
any port is given to DAC input. Amplitude of output waveform can be varied by varying
the pot R40 that is by varying the reference voltage of DAC0800.

4.2.10 SPI ADC:
12 Bit SPI ADC is directly interfaced to the controller through the controller port
lines P4.2(CS), P4.3(MOSI),P4.4(MISI) and P4.5(UCLK). Using the connector CN15 the
lines are interfaced with the controller.

4.3 JUMPER DESCRIPTION:
There are 4 jumpers provided on the Controller board, the description and their
significance are given below.

Jumper Significance
JP1 JTAG connects the VCC
JP2 JTAG connects the VCC
JP3 For to monitor DVCC1 voltage

the port lines P1.5, P1.4 and P1.1 respectively. The clock signal ACLK = 32768 Hz, can be
observed at the test point TP10. Similarly the clock signals SMCLK and MCLK can be
observed at test point TP9 and TP11 respectively.


CHAPTER 7

TROUBLE SHOOTING

If any trouble is faced then refer to the schematic and resolve the problem
according to the following suggestions.

GENERAL PROBLEM: In case of any problem check out the clock signals ACLK,
SMCLK & MCLK at the port lines P1.5, P1.4 and P1.1 respectively. The clock signal ACLK
= 32768 Hz, can be observed at the pin 4 of the connector CN6. Similarly the clock
signals SMCLK = MCLK = 1048550 Hz can be observed at the pin 3 and TP11
respectively. If the clock signals are not accordingly then check out the microcontroller.

POWER FAILURE: If power LED L1 is not glowing then, check out the LED. If LED is in
good condition then it means the power is not supplied to the MSP430 board. Check out
the +5V incoming power at the pin 9 of connector CN2. If +5V is not supplied then
replace the +5V power supply unit with the one which is working good.

If then also power is not supplied then check out the input of the regulator U2 on board.
If +5V is measured at the input pin-3 of the regulator U2 and 3.3V is not obtained at the
output pin-2 of the U2 then replace the regulator with the one which is working good. If
then also power is not supplied to the board then refer to the schematic and checkout all
the related tracks on the board.

DOWNLOADING PROBLEM: If there is any problem in downloading the program then
check out the followings

1. Check out the proper connections as per the downloading details provided.

2. Check whether proper target device is selected in the MSPFET utility.
