Workshop Agenda
Here’s the outline of chapters in this workshop.
Chapter 1: “Intro” Provides a quick introduction to TI, TI’s Embedded Processors, as well
as the MSP430 Family of devices.
Chapter 2: “CCS” introduces TI’s development ecosystem. This includes:
− Code Composer Studio (CCSv5)
− Target software, such as MSP430ware and TI-RTOS
− TI’s support infrastructure, including the embedded processors wiki
and
Engineer-to-Engineer (e2e) forums.
Chapter 3: “GPIO” This is our introduction to programming with MSP430ware; specifically,
the DriverLib (i.e. driver library) part of MSP430ware. We start out by using it
to program GPIO to blink an LED (often called the “embedded systems version
of ‘Hello World’”). The second part of the lab reads a Launchpad pushbutton.
Chapter 4: “Clocks” This chapter starts at reset – in fact, all three resets found on the
MSP430. We then progress to examining the rich and robust clocking options
provided in the MSP430. This is followed by the power management features
found on many of the ‘430 devices. The chapter finishes up by reviewing the
other required system initialization tasks … such as configuring (or turning off)
the watchdog timer peripheral.
