There is a pot connect to the ADC of msp430 Ao(pin p1.0). The values of ADC10MEM displayed using LCD.

The Vcc for pot is taken from msp430 launchpad.so maximum voltage is 3.6v.

The msp430 10 bit ADC operates in the range 0 to 3.6V. If the input voltage is 0V,

the ADC generates a 10 bit value:

0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

which is numerically equal to 0.

When the input voltage is 3.6V, the ADC

generates a 10 bit pattern:

1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

which is numerically equal to 1023.

These values are stored in ADC10MEM.

Atmel AVR 8-bit and 32-bit microcontrollers deliver a unique combination of performance, power efficiency, and design flexibility. Optimized to speed time to market, they are based on the industry’s most code-efficient architecture for C and assembly programming. No other microcontrollers deliver more computing performance with better power efficiency. Industry-leading development tools and design support let you get to market faster. Once there, the large AVR family lets you reuse your knowledge when improving your products and expanding to new markets—easily and cost-effectively.

package required in linux

binutils: Programs to manipulate binary and object files that may have been created for Atmel’s AVR architecture. This package is primarily for AVR developers and cross-compilers.

gcc-avr: The GNU C compiler, a fairly portable optimising compiler that supports multiple languages. This package includes C language support.

avr-libc: Standard library used for developing C programs for Atmel AVR microcontrollers. This package contains static libraries, as well as needed header files.

Amplitude Modulation (AM) is a type of analog communication in which the amplitude of a carrier signal is varied in proportion to the message signal. It is one of the oldest and most widely used forms of radio communication, and it is still used in many applications today, including AM radio broadcasting and certain types of military and aviation communications.

In this blog post, we will learn how to generate and plot AM waves using the Python library Matplotlib. Matplotlib is a powerful tool for creating visualizations of data and is widely used in scientific and engineering applications. We will use it to plot an AM wave with a specified carrier frequency and message frequency, and learn how to customize the appearance of the plot. This tutorial is designed for beginners, but some familiarity with Python and basic concepts in signal processing will be helpful.
