hi list,i'd like to know which parts are really needed to use the msp430f1232 in the programmed state, assuming the power supply is stable and no buffer caps are needed.
the attached picture is part of the documentation from olimex. it shows the external parts of the header board for the msp430f1232. there are five components:
- watch quarz (optional - not needed) - r1 (needed to hold 'test' down) - r2 (needed to hold 'reset' up) - c1 (??? - not needed) - c2 (??? - not needed)so what about c1 and c2. are they really needed? are two external resistors enough to use the controller?
another question: does anyone have experiences in (hand-)soldering the tiny QFN packages? best regards, stefan
