Circuit Design

  • Properly terminate unused pins of the IC (MSP430 in this case).
  • Avoid connecting sensitive signals (such as reset, interrupts, or edge-triggered signals) to long traces or cables.
  • If possible avoid edge-triggered logic in the system.
  • Isolate outside signals by using opto-couplers or transformers.
  • If required, include deglitch filters to prevent inadvertent triggers in the system (such as power monitors).
  • Allow for the system to reset or recover from deadlock state after an ESD event (for example, by using watchdog timers or nonmaskable interrupts).
