MSP432E401Y: SimpleLink-MSP432P4/E4-SDK difference

Genius 5785 points
Part Number: MSP432E401Y


Hello,

Could you tell me the difference between SimpleLink-MSP432P4-SDK and SimpleLink-MSP432E4-SDK? I built application software with SimpleLink-MSP432P4-SDK on MSP432P4 before. In order to speed up CPU operating frequency, I'd like to migrate that software to SimpleLink-MSP432E4-SDK on MSP432E4.

Regards,

  • Hello Kazu,

    When building the software using the MSP432P4 and then migrating to the MSP432E4, it is essential that you use the TI Drivers. If you are using the driverlib then the project migration is not simple. However with the RTOS and the TI Drivers it is possible to migrate a lot of the application code as long as the features being used between the two devices are same or similar.
  • Hello Amit,

    Thank you for your quick reply. I built application software based on the following sample software. It uses driverlib which is for NO-RTOS. This sample uses ROM API (MAP_I2C_XXX). Is API incompatible between two devices?

    <sdk>\examples\nortos\MSP_EXP432P401R\driverlib\i2c_master_rw_repeated_start-master_code

    Does TI driver you mentioned mean the following? It looks like there're few samples for NO-RTOS.

    <sdk>\examples\nortos\MSP_EXP432P401R\drivers
    <sdk>\examples\rtos\MSP_EXP432P401R\drivers

    Regards,

  • Hello Kazu,

    Yes, the driverlib is incompatible between the two devices.. By TI Driver I meant the RTOS based examples. We plan to add more RTOS based examples with upcoming releases.
