4.4.2 MSP432P401R Code Examples
Inside of the SimpleLink MSP432 SDK, a set of very simple MSP432P4xx code examples can be found
that demonstrate how to use the entire set of MSP432 peripheral: serial communication, precision ADC,
Timer_A, Timer_B, and so on. These examples show both the direct register access and driver library
methods.
Every MSP derivative has a set of these code examples. When starting a new project or adding a new
peripheral, these examples serve as a great starting point (see Section 4.3).
