Abstract: In this project, mainly we are focusing on
developing a new booster pack that works with a 3G/4G
module. To develop a booster pack we are using an industrial
grade open source hardware called MangOH Red designed
to address common IoT pain points and deliver 90% of our
prototype out-of-the-box so we can focus our time and
resources building the next killer IoT application and
bringing our products to market sooner. We are using a CF3
module of WP series (wp7502), which is a 4G module,
manufactured by a sierra wireless company. This module is
built using a Legato platform and uses its own APIs to
operate and execute. Basically, nowadays IoT plays
important role in the society hence this helps for quick
prototyping and provides an easy way for requirements of the
Internet of Things. This concept mainly involves the
implementation of serial communication between client and
server using MangOH and MSP430 [11] [12].
Keywords: APIs, MSP430, GSM,CF3, LP, IoT.
I. INTRODUCTION
The microcontroller is a computer system on a chip that does a
job. It contains an integrated processor, memory, and
programmable input output peripherals which are used to
interact with chips. MSP430 is one of the most important
aspects of the hardware. The MSP430 is the simplest
microcontroller in TI. It is a product of Texas Instruments. The
MSP430 was introduced in the late 1990s, although its
ancestry goes back to the 4-bit TSS400. In summary, it is a
particularly straight forward 16-bit processor with a Von-
Neumann architecture, designed for low-power applications.
The CPU is often described as a reduced instruction set
computer (RISC) but this is if unimportant and is considered
in the section “Reflections on the CPU and Instruction Set”.
Both the address and data buses are 16 bits wide. The registers
in the CPU are also all 16 bits wide and can be used
interchangeably for either data or addresses. This makes the
MSP430 simpler than an 8-bit processor with 16-bit addresses
[1] [2].
The figure1 shows a block diagram of the MSP430.
The main features are
On the left are the CPU and its supporting hardware,
including the clock generator. The emulation, JTAG
interface, and Spy-Bi-Wire are used to communicate
with a desktop computer when downloading a
program and for debugging.
The main blocks are linked by the memory address
bus (MAB) and memory data bus (MDB).
These devices have flash memory and 128 bytes of
RAM.
