[Openeeg-list] Microcontroller choice

[Nicolas B. <nic...@vi...>]

Hi,


# FOR THE HARDWARE

The EEG-signal circuitry is quite tricky. Go for an analog board, it 
will saves you so much time and problems... Really!

MSP-430 is a big family... Which one do you want to use ? Any idea ?

This microcontroller family should fit for this task.

Try to find one operating at 5V.

Then, take the digital board design, and replace the atmega8 by your 
microcontroller. (You'll have to do some small changes, of course...)


# FOR THE SOFTWARE

You have to program your firmware, to send the same packets the modEEG 
would do.

I should have the protocol details, somewhere... I'll look for it.

No problem, you'll be able to use any openEEG software.



This is just a quick answer.
Email me for details

Best Regards
