Software resources for TI MSP430 MCUs

8 February 2012 Design Automation

Providing a comprehensive software ecosystem for simplified microcontroller development, Texas Instruments announced the new MSP430Ware software and resource package.

MSP430Ware offers a sleek and intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) where developers can immediately access and easily filter through all MSP430 microcontroller design resources by device, tool or software library.

With automatic web updates, MSP430Ware ensures developers always have the latest documentation, code examples, project templates and more. Developers can also take advantage of MSP430Ware’s free software resources in a familiar design setting as part of the Code Composer Studio integrated development environment (IDE).

MSP430Ware features a one-stop-shop for MSP430 microcontroller developers by organising and presenting existing software tools as well as new resources such as the MSP430 driver library. This library allows designers to configure, enable and use MSP430F5xx and MSP430F6xx microcontroller peripherals through an easy-to-understand application programming interface (API) and simple function calls. This abstracted API library eliminates bitwise programming, providing a faster time to market for new and experienced developers.

Also packaged within MSP430Ware are project templates for Grace 1.1, the most recent version of the Grace software platform, which enables developers to quickly and easily enable and configure MSP430 Value Line and MSP430F2xx device peripherals. Additionally, the MSP430 USB developer’s package is also available, which includes all necessary APIs and examples to begin USB development.
