Is there a way to work with both the Tiva C series launchpad and MSP430 Launchpad on the same CCS installation.

Hi Arun,

Nope! You'll have to use 2 different installations for free licenses. The only option to use both of them together is to purchase CCS license.

Thank you gautam, I think i will go with IAR evaluation version for MSP430, they have a 8K limited version for MSP430X devices...

also i am referring to the book by John H Davies...

Hi Arun,

only with a full license. Note CCS has a 16kB limited free version for the msp430, the tiva parts are free to use with an xds100 emulator, You would need two parallel installations though.

Best Regards,

Lisa

Arun,

Just one detail: which release are you using? The reason of my question is that, if you are using CCSv6, you don't need to install two releases anymore - this was true for CCSv5.

You can simply select the Free limited license when running it for the first time.

Check section 4 of the CCSv6 Getting Started guide at:

Cheers,

Rafael

i am running CC6 6.01, full version. I have a similar issue in that I was working with MSP430, now I want to develop Tiva. I look at Code Composer Studio Installation Details and I see a bunch of MSP430 stuff, and other than one line about TI Arm Compiler Version 5.1 User's Guides, nothing Tiva or Arm. I am hoping I don't have to download and re-install CCS. Please advise.
