CCS/MSP430FR2355: CCS/MSP430FR2355

Part Number: MSP430FR2355

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I am very new to msp430fr2355 microcontroller and I want to send data from this microcontroller to PC with the help of UART but I dont have any idea either about code or connection.Please suggest me how could send data to  RealTerm with this microcontroller.Please give me code and Its hardware connection.There is no article on the internet related MSP430FR2355 about UART.

  • The Examples set (SLAC740A) can be downloaded from the "Tools and Software" tab on the Product page. I suggest Example msp430fr235x_euscia0_uart_05.c to get started. It talks at 4800bps and echoes what you type in RealTerm (e.g.).

    The Examples are also in Resource Explorer:
    dev.ti.com/.../

    This example uses USCI_A0, but the Launchpad uses USCI_A1 for its Application ("backchannel") UART. You can try changing all the references in the code, but I don't recommend trying that if you're just starting out. Instead, I suggest running two jumper wires:
    1) From the RXD pin on J101 (USB side) to the P1.6 pin on J1 (near the top-left of the Booster Pack headers)
    2) From the TXD pin on J101 (USB side) to the P1.7 pin on J1
  • I tried as u told me but I am not able to write anything on RealTerm.I dont know how to configure RealTerm so please guide me> I am lacking my self confidence.
  • I'm not very familiar with RealTerm, but I expect Google will find some directions.

    That example doesn't generate activity by itself, it only echoes back what you type into your terminal program.
