MSP430 tutorial for beginners

Started by for_si2003 May 6, 2009
I had written this tutorial for beginners some time ago.

http://referencedesigner.com/tutorials/msp430/msp430_01.php

I would like members' feedback. Also I am looking for any volunteer to contribute to this tutorial to extend it. The contributors' name and details ( email, web address etc.) will be included.

Let me know if anyone is interested.

Beginning Microcontrollers with the MSP430

Hi Vikas,
First of all your tutorials have been a great help for me. They are very
easy to understand and a really nice initiative.

At the same time I would like to point out a few things:-
1.The links for the tutorials on Serial port comm ,PWM and 'Using funcions'
are broken.
2.The C program mentioned in the ' LED ON and OFF Program' doesn't work
because there is a 'return 0' command at the end(same goes for the rest of
the programs).
3.Also the header file should be 'msp430x14x.h' instead of 'io430x14x.h'
---For this I am not sure, others please correct.
4.In the 'Understand your Hardware' section you have shown the image of
Olimexmsp430F169 board but in all your programs you ar using programs for
msp430F149 ----for a newbies like me it takes a lill time to understand the
difference.
Thats it for now. If you have not yet written tutorial for the Serial port
communication I would like to contribute. Tell me if I can pool-in.

Best regards and thx,

Pranay
