Hello,
I'm wondering if it would be viable to have the MSP430 running a simple task without an OS. Basically I will be polling 8 FSRs at 10Hz through analog inputs, this should give me a value between 0 and 1024 (right?), which I will output through I2C to an FTDI I2C to USB chip, and then from that to a computer to be interpretted with software. I was hoping to simply output them in a string, delimited by a space. I could even send it in binary, as one long 80-bit number and break it up into 10-bit chunks on the recieving end. Are any of these options viable to do without any sort of OS? I want to keep this as streamlined as possible and I don't really know if an RTOS is necessary.
Thank you,
Mark
