Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2553, ENERGIA, MSP430WARE

Hi iam trying to see whether or not the msp430g2553 will work with the ti sensehub. I have verified that it works with the msp430f5529LP. Will pins align properly?

I am using energia for my developement platform. but i would not mind if a sample code code composer can be given.  I only need to access the accelorometer. The I2C pins seem to align. Thank you for the help in advance.

    Hello Ibrahim,

    All of the LaunchPads and BoosterPacks are based on a standard pinout. Refer to the link below which has an image describing the standard.

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/BYOB#LaunchPad.2FBoosterPack_Standard

    If you were trying to connect the MSP430G2553 LaunchPad, you should have access to the outer sets of pins (i.e. the 20 pin standard from the image above), but not the inner set of pins. This gives you access to the I2C pins, and therefore, according to the schematic (page 8,9) on the user's guide http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spmu290/spmu290.pdf, the accelerometer. 

    If you are interested in using Code Composer Studio to program your MSP430, we also have a software package called MSP430Ware that runs on top of CCS that provides Code examples, datasheets, and more.

    You can download the software package here: http://www.ti.com/tool/msp430ware 

    Once you download Code Composer Studio and the MSP430Ware package, you can access all of the content within Code Composer Studio. 

    Follow these instructions to find examples specific to your device:
    1. Open CCS
    2. Select View -> Resource Explorer (Examples)
    3. A panel should open and you should see MSP430Ware
    4. Select MSP430Ware--> Devices --> MSP430G2xx --> Code Examples --> MSP430G2x53
    5. Here is a list of projects and files that contain code to control the MSP430 device of interest
    6. Select the appropriate project and select MSP430G2553 under the Device Selection Page

    There are plenty of I2C examples under the One-Click Projects tab, so I would start with those.

    Best Regards,

    Michael
