I’ve got a long technical post coming on the clock system of the MSP430, a topic that I ended up having to become an expert in to get 1-wire working properly, but in the meantime there have been developments in the mspgcc world.
You may recall that I abandoned doing 430 development on Linux in part due to incompatibilities with TI’s compiler (IAR) and the sample code they provided. I’m happy to say that progress has been made, as reported by 43oh. MSPGCC now includes header files directly from TI. What this means is no more choosing an equivalent processor with a different model number and hoping it works.
While I’ve now aligned my development to using CCS and IAR, I’m glad to see this progress and may return once I have more experience overall.
