This show a recent version of the laboratory kit, andits name is BH EDU board kit9. Students can mount their MSP432 launchpad boards on the BH EDUboards. Students will learn about various aspects of the MSP432 applications using this BH EDUboard kit. After the completion of the Fall semester of 2019, to provide better education for thestudents for the following semester, the author decided to compile the lecture contents and to publisha book regarding this MSP432 application course.
