Hy /diy/ , i need some help :
I have an MSP430 microcontroller and with a thermistor i have made a themperature sensor . The hardware part is done but now i have problem at the code part , i didn't quite get useful information on the internet and i wonder if you could redirect me on useful sites or give some tips. Thanks :)

It's been a while since I've used the msp430 but I'll try to help.
Are you using that nokia 5110 display?
If so, have some info/code that might help you.
Good community site:

Assuming you will be controlling some HVAC equipment with that thing, how are you handling the higher voltage? I was thinking of making myself a thermostat but my unit is all 120VAC controls which makes it a bitch
>>
The display has 14 pins , it is not like in the picture . The project is not made for hvac equipment , but anyway I used a voltage divider between the thermistor and GND . It will just be plugged by usb in laptop .

My only problem is that i can't find tutorials / tips for the code part . This is quite an unpopular MSP and i want to know where to find some projects to make an ideea about coding.

What part of it, exactly? Or do you mean the whole shit from processor initialization to displaying shit on LCD?
>>
whole shit , although i think it doesn't have more than 20 code lines
>>

I assume what you're trying to say is that you can't find an SDK for that particular part, not that you're having trouble writing what amounts to a for-loop?
>>
yes , sorry for the lack of details

I'm not seeing the specific problem here.
From what you're saying, you already have everything you need to execute this project.
