This project outlines the principle of operation of a digital thermometer and humidity meter design. The measurement is done using slope ADC capabilities of the Timer Port module on the MSP430F413 microcontroller. This project contains information on how to position the ultra-low-power capabilities, an on-chip LCD driver and other useful peripherals of MSP430F4xx family of microcontrollers, in battery-powered ultra-low-power designs.
