MSP430G2452 timer UART communication

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2452, MSP430G2553

Hi all.

i have little bit basic question.

i meet UART communication first time. so, it is little bit hard to learn.

i saw some example(name is 'msp430g2xx2_ta_uart9600.c'). and i try to debug.

Yes. it is do well. but when i tried to change baud rate to 19200(line 90, 91) it is not work well

why it doesn't work? have some limit at MSP430G2452? or Coding is target to baud rate only 9600(i think it is not)?

i need your help. thanks.

//  MSP430G2xx2 Demo - Timer_A, Ultra-Low Pwr UART 9600 Echo, 32kHz ACLK
//
//  Description: Use Timer_A CCR0 hardware output modes and SCCI data latch
//  to implement UART function @ 9600 baud. Software does not directly read and
//  write to RX and TX pins, instead proper use of output modes and SCCI data
//  latch are demonstrated. Use of these hardware features eliminates ISR
//  latency effects as hardware insures that output and input bit latching and
//  timing are perfectly synchronised with Timer_A regardless of other
//  software activity. In the Mainloop the UART function readies the UART to
//  receive one character and waits in LPM3 with all activity interrupt driven.
//  After a character has been received, the UART receive function forces exit
//  from LPM3 in the Mainloop which configures the port pins (P1 & P2) based
//  on the value of the received byte (i.e., if BIT0 is set, turn on P1.0).

//  ACLK = TACLK = LFXT1 = 32768Hz, MCLK = SMCLK = default DCO
//  //* An external watch crystal is required on XIN XOUT for ACLK *//
