MSP430 LaunchPad: Anti-Mosquito Device

Mosquitoes are the plague of the summer time. Luckily ultrasounds can help against them. Why don’t developing an ultrasounds generator with the LaunchPad ? A quite easy task…

My code produces a 10kHz squared wave to the pin of the green led. A little 386-based audio amplifier is wired as well, to transform the signal in an audible sound.

Actually, 10kHz is still audible by humans: it’s just for testing the audio system. If you can hear the high pitched sound everything is OK; now you can switch to 14 or 15 kHz by pressing the S2 button (each press increments the frequency by 1000). These high frequencies are still audible by mosquitoes and they’ll keep them away.
