Hi,
I am using MSP430G2553 for my project. In this project I have to take in the user data which is of 256 bytes and store it in non-volatile memory. Also, there are some commands of 256 bytes which I need to store in non-volatile memory. I can't make use of memory segment B,C and D because of the small size. I have heard that we can sectionalize the flash memory for storing the using data with the use of linker commands. Can anyone help me out in sectionalizing and guiding on how to use these linker commands. Or if there is any example for the same.
Thanks

Hi Nitish,
For CCS, the you can use ".mysection : {} > FLASH " to define a section into FLASH memory in cmd file. And use the DATA_SECTION Pragma to define a variable in a specific data section as below picture. Please see MSP430 Optimizing C/C++ Compiler v18.1.0.LTS User's Guide for more detail.
For IAR, you can find the similar method to define a new section into Flash in the C/C++ Compiler User Guide as below.
I didn't get your reply for a long time. So I will close this thread. If any further questions, you can still ask in this thread.
