7.1.1.2.3 Recommended Software Options
7.1.1.2.3.1 Integrated Development Environments
Software development tools are available from TI or from third parties. Open source solutions are also
available.
This device is supported by Code Composer Studio™ IDE (CCS).
7.1.1.2.3.2 MSP430Ware
MSP430Ware is a collection of code examples, data sheets, and other design resources for all MSP430
devices delivered in a convenient package. In addition to providing a complete collection of existing
MSP430 design resources, MSP430Ware also includes a high-level API called MSP430 Driver Library.
This library makes it easy to program MSP430 hardware. MSP430Ware is available as a component of
CCS or as a stand-alone package.
7.1.1.2.3.3 TI-RTOS
TI-RTOS is a complete real-time operating system for the MSP430 microcontrollers. It combines a real-
time multitasking kernel SYS/BIOS with additional middleware components. TI-RTOS is available free of
charge and provided with full source code.
7.1.1.2.3.4 Command-Line Programmer
MSP430 Flasher is an open-source, shell-based interface for programming MSP430 microcontrollers
through a FET programmer or eZ430 using JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) communication. MSP430 Flasher
can be used to download binary files (.txt or .hex) files directly to the MSP430 Flash without the need for
an IDE.
7.1.2 Device and Development Tool Nomenclature
To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of all
MSP430 MCU devices and support tools. Each MSP430 MCU commercial family member has one of
three prefixes: MSP, PMS, or XMS (for example, MSP430F5438A). TI recommends two of three possible
prefix designators for its support tools: MSP and MSPX. These prefixes represent evolutionary stages of
product development from engineering prototypes (with XMS for devices and MSPX for tools) through fully
qualified production devices and tools (with MSP for devices and MSP for tools).
Device development evolutionary flow:
XMS – Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the electrical specifications for the
final device
PMS – Final silicon die that conforms to the electrical specifications for the device but has not completed
quality and reliability verification
MSP – Fully qualified production device
Support tool development evolutionary flow:
MSPX – Development-support product that has not yet completed TI's internal qualification testing.
MSP – Fully-qualified development-support product
XMS and PMS devices and MSPX development-support tools are shipped against the following
disclaimer:
"Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes."
MSP devices and MSP development-support tools have been characterized fully, and the quality and
reliability of the device have been demonstrated fully. TI's standard warranty applies.
