Materials made of metals have their own manifest resonant frequencies. Using this property, the quality test of products from the factory can be performed. An impact is applied to the product and the frequencies of the sound and/or vibration are measured using high-end equipments. They use a general purpose computer or a DSP(: Digital Signal Processor)-based stand-alone system which is usually too large in-size to carry and expensive to build. In this paper, we introduce a system that is developed based on a MSP430 MCU(:Micro-Controller Unit) from TI(: Texas Instruments). The ultra-low power MSP430 MCUs make it possible to make a frequency analyzer in a very small size without the need of using a large-size battery. The proposed system can be used in situations where the frequency analyzer should be carried easily with an investigator and should be built at low cost sacrificing some accuracy. We implemented the system using a launchpad supplied by TI and could confirm that the proposed system could identify with a high-accuracy the frequencies of various artificial and natural sounds.

The ELCB(: Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker) is the only way being used to prevent accidents from happening caused by electrical disaster. However, the existing ELCB has a limit to prevent damages to life and property due to a electric fire and a human body electric shock caused by the resistive leakage current, because of detecting the total leakage current in the block range of 15mA~30mA. It also has problems such as reduced productivity and reliability due to malfunctions by capacitive leakage currents. In this study, we have implemented the algorithm for the resistive leakage current detection technique and developed the resistive leakage current detection module based on a MSP430 processor, 16bit signal processor and this module can be operated in a desired block threshold within 0.03 seconds as specified in KS C 4613.

In the sensor network, many tiny nodes construct Ad-Hoc network using wireless interface. As this type of system consists of thousands of nodes, managing each sensor node in real world after deploying them is very difficult. In order to install the sensor network successfully, it is necessary to verify its software using a simulator beforehand. In fact Sensor network simulators require high fidelity and timing accuracy to be used as a design, implementation, and evaluation tool of wireless sensor networks. Cycle-accurate, instruction-level simulation is the known solution for those purposes. In this paper, we developed an instruction-level sensor network simulator for Telos sensor node as named TeloSlM. It consists of MSP430 and CC2420. Recently, Telos is the most popular mote because MSP430 can consume the minimum energy in recent motes and CC2420 can support Zigbee. So that TeloSlM can provide the easy way for the developers to verify software. It is cycle-accurate in instruction-level simulator that is indispensable for OS and the specific functions and can simulate scalable sensor network at the same time. In addition, TeloSlM provides the GUI Tool to show result easily.

Recently interest for air pollution is gradually increasing. However, according to the environmental assessment of air quality, the level of air pollution in the nation is quite serious, and air pollutants measuring facilities are also not enough. In this paper, a secure air pollutants sensor system based low power wireless communication is designed and implemented. The proposed system is composed of three parts: air pollutants measuring sensors module, LoRa-based data transmission module, and monitoring module. In the air pollutants measuring module, the MSP430 board with six big air pollutants measuring sensors are used. The air pollutants sensing data is transmitted to the control server in the monitoring system using LoRa transmission module. The received sensing data is stored in the database of the monitoring system, and visualized in real-time on the map of the sensor locations. The implemented air pollutant sensor system can be used for measuring the level of air quality conveniently in our daily lives.

Public key cryptography (PKC) is the basic building block for the cryptography applications such as encryption, key distribution, and digital signature scheme. Among many PKC, elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is the most widely used in IT systems. Recently, very efficient Montgomery-Twisted-Edward (MoTE)-ECC was suggested, which supports low complexity for the finite field arithmetic, group operation, and scalar multiplication. However, we cannot directly adopt the MoTE-ECC to new PKC systems since the cryptography is not fully evaluated in terms of performance on the Internet of Things (IoT) platforms, which only supports very limited computation power, energy, and storage. In this paper, we fully evaluate the MoTE-ECC implementations on the representative IoT devices (16-bit MSP processors). The implementation is highly optimized for the target platform and compared in three different factors (ROM, RAM, and execution time). The work provides good reference results for a gradual transition from legacy ECC to MoTE-ECC on emerging IoT platforms.

In this paper, the leakage current detection and auto shut-off module for a concent has been developed. Existing leakage current detection modules are detecting resistive leakage current, using a resistive leakage current detection chip but the proposed leakage current detection module separates and detects resistive leakage current in the synthesis leakage current by only programming in a power processor MCU(MSP430). The module implemented by proposed method has early detection and auto shut-off feature at more than resistive leakage current 5mA, and has the advantage of easily adjusting resistive leakage current less or more than 5mA, because of resistive leakage current detection function being implemented by a program in MCU.
