I'm still learning things about the embedded software world. This topic came up recently. I'm using an MSP430F5438A. I load the software using Code Composer and the USB flash programmer. Now every time I apply power to the board, my software runs.
Does this sequence of events involve a bootloader or BSL, perhaps some default TI implementation that I've never had to worry about because I'm not doing any custom or remote bootloading? I think the BSL user's guide (SLAU319) is at too low of a level for me to understand what's going on.
