Hi. I am interested to buy the launch pad mentioned in the subject. I suppose I can manage with that. What is a nice (free) program on PC Windows 10

to make the program to communicate with the launch pad mentioned?

    Hi Raimo,

    Welcome to the wonderful world of MSP430! The Code Composer Studio (CCSTUDIO) Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is the best program for programming and communicating with the MSP-EXP430F5529LP. CCS Cloud is a great online development resource you can utilize if you'd prefer to not locally download any programs onto your computer. I would also recommend starting with the code examples provided in MSP430WARE/MSPDRIVERLIB (available as a separate download or as part of the TI Resource Explorer) to help kick-start your development.

    Regards,
    Ryan

    Ok, thank you for your answer. Anyway, I mean how to develop the software, which is running on the PC? So, I am not sure what is the nicest way to develop the software for PC in this case. I'll manage with the sw in the launch pad, problem is the software on PC side. Do the software from Microsoft (Express C+ or C# or something else) support developing software for USB?

    Raimo,

    Have you viewed the MSP430USBDEVPACK resources, available as a part of MSPWare? This contains all of the USB API code stacks, descriptor tools, and demos you should need to start USB development.

    I guess that most common IDE for MSP is CCS, IAR or Energia. If your question is related to programing PC interface that communicate with micro, than you can choose whatever you want (if I remember right, examples from TI are codded in C / Java / Python).
