USB serial port example project?

Started by "joh...@yahoo.com [msp430]" November 17, 2015
I can't seem to find a "simple" project example to set up and use a USB virtual com port. I know there are descriptors to generate, etc. Is there such a thing all in one place? Sort of like the code examples for other on-chip peripherals.

Dear John,
You can download MSP430USBDevelopersPackage_5_00_01 from TI site. I
find the examples on my machine at
MSP430USBDevelopersPackage_5_00_01\MSP430USBDevelopersPackage_5_00_01\MSP430_USB_Software\MSP430_USB_API\examples
You may start with examples\CDC_virtualCOMport\C0_SimpleSend to get the
VCP going. The host uses a plain terminal.
