Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F1611, MSP430F5438

For my undergrad thesis I have a project to upgrade a design from MSP430F1611 to an MSP430F5438 in embedded C. How would i go about converting PIN maps?

Unfortunately, there isn't a document describing specifically a MSP430F1611 to MSP430F5438 migration. However, below are some documents that may help spark some awareness on the types of things to consider.

Fundamentally you will 4 documents, the MSP430F1611 datasheet, MSP430x1xx Family User's Guide, MSP430F5438 datasheet and the MSP430x5xx Family User's Guide.

The other reference materials are below.

MSP1611 with MSP430F5438 is very different, you can via user guide to understand it,

you can also use the sample code to test .

please refer to http://www.ti.com/lit/zip/slac166

I agree the devices are very different and did not intend to trivialize the task. However, given the above documentation, this should definitely be achievable.
