I think, that only reasonable way to make terminal connection between MSP430F149 PC, is to rewrite low-level fuction putchar() to use USART and let upper-level functions like printf() to make all the conversions needed. I'm using IAR and/or mspgcc. How do I replace putchar.o in library files needed, and what are those lib-files in both systems?

hello! i have been trying to control a servomotor with a MSP430F149 microcontroller, but it seems it wouldn't work. i think the generated PWM outputs(i've worked with the timer interrupts) are not so good, however, i couldn't fix the error. can anyone help me with some piece of advice, please? 10x!

Hi, I want to find out the dynamic parameters of the ADC12 embedded in the MSP430F149. I want to know how I can maximize my sample rate. So far, I was only able to run it at 128 ksps, but the datasheet said I could run it at 200 ksps. If anyone could help me with this matter, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you. - Amy

Hi, I am trying to create a Bootloader for MSP430F1611. Basically I want to separate Bootloader and Application images so that I can upgrade the Application image on demand. After reading through manuals, I only managed to understand how Code segments can be placed at any desired locations in the memory. However, I didn't find any information on creating two images meant to be placed at differe...

Hi everyone, I'm trying to interface an external ADC with the MSP430F1611's SPI. I've written the code to initialize the SPI (seen below), but I now want to test my Init_SPI by writing some data to it and probing it using the scope to see that I've written data to it. Eventually, I want to get data from an external ADC using SPI and store it in memory. Can anyone point me in the rig...

Hi, I want to know how I can interface the SPI with an external ADC. Has anyone done this before? Also, I prefer using polling instead of interrups. Here is my INIT SPI function: =============================INIT_SPI================================= void Init_SPI(void) { P3SEL |= 0x3F; // Select P3.0,1,2,3,4,5 P3DIR |= 0x0B; // Select P3.1,3 as o...

Hello: What would be the most efficient (i.e. minimizing the involvement of resources) and fastest way to generate sinusoidal signals (using the DAC for output) in the TI MSP430F1612? Just approximate (can be stepped, output by the DAC, not filtered), in the audio range (up to 6KHz or so). I heard that part of the necessary algorithms are HW-wired somewhere in the chip, not sure...

Anyone know where to buy a cheap T.I. 430 experimentors board ? BTW I dont work for T.I. but the 430 has the best instruction set of any CPU . It's much easier to write a "NewForth" for it .

I've got a strange problem. I'm trying to move some code over from IAR Kickstart (where I developed it) to Crossworks (where I need to show it working, for various reasons). The debugger I'm using is the ez430; the target is a TI MSP430F2012 target board soldered to a larger circuit. I can build fine, but if I click "build and debug" I get various problems; either it pretends to run but reall...

Hey everyone, I'm working with an MSP430f2012 chip and am tryign to generate a delta sigma bitstream using a gpio pin. Unfortunatly whenever I try to toggle the pin at a rate faster than 10kHz, the pin appears to not be able to fully rise or fall. But isn't 100 us a little slow for rise/fall times. Is there any way I can make i t rise/fall faster. At the current moment I'm leaving the pins unattac...

Hey there, I'm trying to make a simple project work. There's a demo: MSP430F20xx Demo - Timer_A, Ultra-Low Pwr UART 2400 Echo, 32kHz ACLK from TI, it does work but I wanted to use p1.2&p1.6 ports instead of p1.1&p1.5 (TA1 instead of TA0) so I changed lines RXD EQU 002h ; RXD on P1.1 TXD EQU 020h ; TXD on P1.5 with RXD ...

Thanks to Tim et al, I've got the CCR working... but the timer itself doesn't function correctly. Is there a known issue with the timer in this part not actually working? I can't get it to count past approximately 0x7FE0 (and I've tried two chips, one DIP, one TSSOP). Very simple init code: int main(void) { BCSCTL1 = CALBC1_1MHZ; DCOCTL = CALDCO_1MHZ; P1SEL=0x04; P1DIR=0x05; TACC...

I'm currently searching the coder (firmware) who has experience with I2C bus. I am looking for firmware solutions for my prototype that will be used in manufacturing testing for I2C LED Modules. Each module contains six of TPIC2810 LED Driver chips with Address from 1100000X to 1100101X. All of 8 outputs for each LED Driver are loaded with LED. I need to use LED Display Module for di...

Hi All, I am using IAR Embedded Workbench for my code compilation. My application is using msp430fe423. On compiling my code it gave an error #error "Failed to match a default incude file" A quick look into the io430.h file revealed that there is no support for the FE series devices. Kindly help me get round this problem as this brings my work to a complete halt. Has anyone faced th...

Hi Im testing my msp430fg439 with a simple code. In my design I require to use Pins on port 3 from Pin 0 to Pin 3 for the peripheral functions, in this case the SPI interface, and pin 4 to pin 7 like for the I/O functions. After a couple of tests and no signal on pins 7,6,5,0 I decided to use just a simple code (see below) just to test the msp pins. I loaded and executed the software and I...

Dear all; I try to move 2 motor with L298N motor driver card and MSP430G2553. I tried some basic codes, but right motor does not work. When I give energy to right motor can move. So, problem is not in motor. But, when I tried to move both motors only one motor can move (the motor that is driven by IN1 and IN2. I added code to below. I can not find my error. Could you help me please? #includ...

Hi, we use the Quadrafox Compiler/Debugger now for many years as our standard IDE. We use C as Programming language in our firm. But the integrated JTAG Debugger is very bad to use and the generated code is not very good. (optimization). So what do you use for compiling Projects for the MSP Family ? I heard the IAR Compiler is not realy the first choice, and also very expensive. Fra...
