Hello Everyone,

What's the difference between USCI_UART.c/.h and USCI_A_UART.c/.h in DriverLib of MSP430ware 1.6? Which one should I use for MSP430F5529 & MSP430F5510?

Thanks

Binh

    Hi Binh,

    Both files are pretty much the same but use USCI_A_UART. 

    Older versions of DriverLib had the following note:

    //usci_uart.c - Driver for the UART Module.
    //THIS FILE IS INCLUDED FOR BACKWARD COMPATIBILTY. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS FILE
    //AND INCLUDED APIS FOR NEW APPLICATIONS. PLEASE REFER usci_a_uart.c
    //FOR NEW PROJECTS

    I'm not sure why this was removed but it still applies.

    Regards,

    Luis R
