MSP432 LaunchPad

The SimpleLink MSP EXP432P401R LaunchPad development kit is an easy-to-use evaluation module for the MSP432P401R microcontroller. It contains everything needed to start developing on the MSP432 LowPower + Performance ARM 32-bit Cortex-M4F microcontroller (MCU), including onboard debug probe for programming, debugging, and energy measurements. The MSP432P401R microcontroller supports low power applications that require increased CPU speed, memory, analog, and 32-bit performance. All pins of the MSP-EXP432P401R device are fanned out for easy access. These pins make it easy to plug in 20-pin and 40-pin BoosterPack™ modules that add additional functionality including Bluetooth® low energy, Wi-Fi® wireless connectivity, and more.

Rapid prototyping is simplified by access to the 40-pin headers and a wide variety of BoosterPack™ plug in modules that enable technologies such as wireless connectivity, graphical displays, environmental sensing, and many more. Free software development tools are also available such as TI's Eclipse-based Code Composer Studio™ IDE, IAR Embedded Workbench™ IDE, and Keil® µVision® IDE. Code Composer Studio IDE supports EnergyTrace™ technology when paired with the MSP432P401R LaunchPad development kit.
