Uh, he was responding to me.
To the OP: I prefer to manually set the control registers to ensure
they're set correctly (i.e. the code below). I can't remember what
the U0CTL register is set to initially, but perhaps you're missing a
SWRST toggle.
U0CTL = 0x01;
UCTL0 = 0x11;
U0TCTL = 0x30;
U0BR0 = 0xD2; // 4.032Mhz/19200 = D2h
U0BR1 = 0x00;
U0MCTL = 0x00;
ME1 = 0xC0;
U0CTL = 0x10;
IE1 |= URXIE0;
Adjust for a different crystal frequency/baud rate.

Just wonder why you change ME1 with "=0xC0;" but change IE1
with "|=URXIE0;"?

I realized I was contradicting myself after I posted. I have no
explanation actually, other than I just forgot to change it.

Is this is true to all MSP430? that aside from setting the P3SEL, we need to
set the P3DIR for TXD? i worry that my previous project may suddenly stop
working.:) I used MSP430F1610 and i didnt set the P3DIR for the TXD though it
worked. :D

I already gave you my short answer: Do not worry.
Here is my long answer. The current silicon revision of MSP430F1610
is B. For both revision A and B, when you set P3SEL.3 there is no
need to set P3DIR.3.
There are lots of silicon revisions for MSP430F149. Revisions L, M,
N, O, and Q do not need P3DIR.3 to be set either. I do not know about
revisions A through K. My speculation is that they are the same in
this respect. But that is just my speculation.

Matt,
I did not respond to your original post because I cannot figure out
what went wrong. Other then the useless while (1) loop at the end,
the code seems okay to me. I have two questions and one suggestion
(if you are still stuck):
Question 1: What silicon revision of F149 are you using? I do not
think this is important. Just to satisfy my curiosity.
Question 2: Are you sure the 8MHz crystal is oscillating? Do NOT look
at pin 52 or 53. Set P5SEL:BIT5 to 1 and look at pin 49. You should
see SMCLK there. (You do not need to set P5DIR:BIT5.)
Suggestion: Solve one problem at a time. The modified code below
should show TXD0 as a continous square wave of about 57.6 kHz (i.e.,
alternating 0 and 1 at 115.2 kb/s.)
#include
void main(void)
{
volatile unsigned int i;
WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; // Stop WDT
P3SEL |= 0x30; // P3.4,5 = USART0 TXD/RXD
BCSCTL1 &= ~XT2OFF; // XT2on
do
{
IFG1 &= ~OFIFG; // Clear OSCFault flag
for (i = 0xFF; i > 0; i--); // Time for flag to set
}
while ((IFG1 & OFIFG)); // OSCFault flag still set?
BCSCTL2 |= SELM_2 + SELS; // MCLK = SMCLK = XT2 (safe)
ME1 |= UTXE0 + URXE0; // Enable USART0 TXD/RXD
UCTL0 |= CHAR; // 8-bit character
UTCTL0 |= SSEL1; // UCLK = SMCLK
UBR00 = 0x45; // 8MHz 115200
UBR10 = 0x00; // 8MHz 115200
UMCTL0 = 0x00; // 8MHz 115200 modulation
UCTL0 &= ~SWRST; // Initialize USART state machine
// The above are your original code.
// The rest of your original code is cut.
// What follows is new.
P5SEL |= BIT5; //show SMCLK at pin 56
while (1)
{
if (IFG1 & UTXIFG0) TXBUF0 = 0x55; //TXD0 at pin 32
}
}

I've never bothered checking where the change would be, but I can assure you that some of those
revisions will need P3DIR for TXD to work.
In fact that's the exception to the rule anyway. MSP430 special functions generally dont drive
the I/O DIR settings, you have to do that yourself.
I never rely on POR values in init code, and I conversely don't rely on this "P3SEL guarantees
that P3DIR is set" business either.
It's just one instruction, and I think it's not worth the risk, I simply still use the P3DIR
instruction.
Better safe than sorry, but that's me.
I've used F149 ever since it was hardly an engineering sample, so I consider myself to know the
pitfalls by now..

Subject: [msp430] Re: UART Response Problem
I already gave you my short answer: Do not worry.
Here is my long answer. The current silicon revision of MSP430F1610
is B. For both revision A and B, when you set P3SEL.3 there is no
need to set P3DIR.3.
There are lots of silicon revisions for MSP430F149. Revisions L, M,
N, O, and Q do not need P3DIR.3 to be set either. I do not know about
revisions A through K. My speculation is that they are the same in
this respect. But that is just my speculation.

I've never bothered checking where the change would be, but I can assure you that some of those
revisions will need P3DIR for TXD to work.
In fact that's the exception to the rule anyway. MSP430 special functions generally dont drive
the I/O DIR settings, you have to do that yourself.

Just an update. I've Tried setting the port 3 directions like
suggested and it seems to be working now. Thanks for the help guys.
I used the same code as posted earlier. Just changes the Port3 directions.

Hi OCY, David et al,
To set the record straight all the way now :

Well, it is....

Why not ? A minimal decent CRO probe will nicely show the waveform.

Wrong too !!
In earlier revs you DO have to set P5DIR. I remember having to do that with those F149s !!
Conclusion :
If you can _guarantee_ that only F16XX will be used, no worries.
But if you need to drop in F149, I'd revisit my code ......
I was a little irritated that "newbies" to MSP430 (from my time point of view) asserted "facts"
about MSP430 that are clearly wrong.
That's a bit of an unfair equation to me, considering I was obviosuly using MSP430 a LONG time
before the critics on here were....
Best Regards,
Kris

Subject: [msp430] Re: UART Response Problem
Matt,
I did not respond to your original post because I cannot figure out
what went wrong. Other then the useless while (1) loop at the end,
the code seems okay to me. I have two questions and one suggestion
(if you are still stuck):
Question 1: What silicon revision of F149 are you using? I do not
think this is important. Just to satisfy my curiosity.
Question 2: Are you sure the 8MHz crystal is oscillating? Do NOT look
at pin 52 or 53. Set P5SEL:BIT5 to 1 and look at pin 49. You should
see SMCLK there. (You do not need to set P5DIR:BIT5.)
Suggestion: Solve one problem at a time. The modified code below
should show TXD0 as a continous square wave of about 57.6 kHz (i.e.,
alternating 0 and 1 at 115.2 kb/s.)
#include
void main(void)
{
volatile unsigned int i;
WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; // Stop WDT
P3SEL |= 0x30; // P3.4,5 = USART0 TXD/RXD
BCSCTL1 &= ~XT2OFF; // XT2on
do
{
IFG1 &= ~OFIFG; // Clear OSCFault flag
for (i = 0xFF; i > 0; i--); // Time for flag to set
}
while ((IFG1 & OFIFG)); // OSCFault flag still set?
BCSCTL2 |= SELM_2 + SELS; // MCLK = SMCLK = XT2 (safe)
ME1 |= UTXE0 + URXE0; // Enable USART0 TXD/RXD
UCTL0 |= CHAR; // 8-bit character
UTCTL0 |= SSEL1; // UCLK = SMCLK
UBR00 = 0x45; // 8MHz 115200
UBR10 = 0x00; // 8MHz 115200
UMCTL0 = 0x00; // 8MHz 115200 modulation
UCTL0 &= ~SWRST; // Initialize USART state machine
// The above are your original code.
// The rest of your original code is cut.
// What follows is new.
P5SEL |= BIT5; //show SMCLK at pin 56
while (1)
{
if (IFG1 & UTXIFG0) TXBUF0 = 0x55; //TXD0 at pin 32
}
}
