Delegates will take home a free eZ430-F2013 development tool that allows new users to evaluate the MSP430 MCU architecture in minutes and also gives experienced developers all the resources they need to complete an entire project based on the MSP430F20xx series of devices.
In a compact Universal Serial Bus (USB) stick form factor, the eZ430-F2013 is the world's smallest, complete MCU development and evaluation tool.
The 2006 '430 Day' event, hosted by TI distributors worldwide, teaches designers of embedded applications how the MSP430 MCU platform enables countless system design possibilities with its modern 16bit RISC architecture, advanced peripheral set and wide portfolio - all while maintaining the world's lowest MCU power consumption.
Delegates will also learn how MSP430 development tools, including the new eZ430-F2013, and other resources can make getting started on new designs as 'eZ' as 1-2-3.
