Optimise Your Ultrasonic Sensing Design: EVM430-FR6043 Development Board for MSP430FR6043 Applications (ultrasonic gas flow meter)
Engineered for developers seeking precision and efficiency in ultrasonic flow measurement systems, the EVM430-FR6043 – Ultrasonic Sensing Development Board is a robust platform built around the MSP430FR6043 ultra-low-power microcontroller. This evaluation kit offers a powerful, flexible environment for designing, testing, and optimising ultrasonic sensing applications, especially in smart gas metering and flow measurement systems. Designed with power efficiency in mind, the onboard Ultrasonic Sensing Subsystem (USS) enables highly accurate transit time measurements, while the integrated Low-Energy Accelerator (LEA) boosts signal processing performance without compromising battery life.
The development board provides a complete setup to test with a variety of ultrasonic transducers operating at different frequencies. The on-board segmented LCD enables real-time data display, and BoosterPack-compatible headers allow easy interfacing with external modules using I2C, SPI, UART, and GPIO protocols. A built-in eZ-FET emulator simplifies programming and debugging, making it ideal for both rapid prototyping and advanced development phases. Whether you are creating flow measurement systems or innovating in smart utility metering, this kit enables precise, energy-efficient results.
