IAR/MSP430 and Checksum Algorithm

Started by Andy Busa May 14, 2009
Hi all,

I am using IAR to build my MSP430 code.

Where can I find information on how the checksum is generated as we have
to write a function in our boot code to verify the checksum of the main
image on startup?

Beginning Microcontrollers with the MSP430

Try looking at the IAR linker manual from page 22.

In the user-guide, where else... that's what it's for!
Alternatively look out for Technical Note 91733 on IAR webpage!
