2023-05-18: c1 - rust - it doesn't look like openocd has msp430 support
tingo@kg-core1:~/work/rust/esp $ pkg info -l openocd | grep msp430
oh well.
2023-05-18: c1 - rust - try to build

2022-07-13: If I change target to MSP430G2231, I get a failure when trying to build
undefined first referenced symbol in file --------- ---------------- TA0CCR0 ./main.obj TA0CCR1 ./main.obj TA0CCTL0 ./main.obj TA0CCTL1 ./main.obj TA0CTL ./main.obj error: unresolved symbols remain error: errors encountered during linking; "MSP-EXP430G2-Launchpad.out" not built
not sure why. Well, ok, changing the line #include msp430g2553.h"
in main.c to #include "msp430g2231.h"
fixed it. duh.
Now I can load the project after it is built, and it works too.
2022-07-13: default setting for the MSP-EXP430G2 OutOfBox example is for a MSP430G2553 device (why?). when I compile with G2553 target (and output format eabi (ELF) it compiles without problems, but when I try to Load it, I get an error message "MSP430: Error connecting to the target: The target setup (MSP430G2xx3) does not match the actual target type (F20x2_G2x2x_G2x3x)". Well, yes obviously, since it is a G2231 in the LaunchPad.
2022-07-13: the device on the LaunchPad is a MSP430G2231 as described in the Quick Start Guide. The other device in the kit is a G2211.
2022-07-13: I connected the MSP-EXP430G2 LaunchPad to my work laptop (running win10). The launchpad shows up as a COM port, "MSP430 Application UART (COM10)". The LaunchPadWiki at ti.com/launchpadwiki is gone.
2021-11-07: I re-created this page on my self-hosted web server.
2010-10-12: I got the MSP-430G2 kit.
2010-10-11: DHL attempted delivery of the MSP-430G2, but I wasn't home.
2010-10-06: I got a shipment notification for the MSP-430G2 from TI.
2010-09-07: I ordered a MSP-EXP430G2 MSP430 LaunchPad Value Line Development kit from TI. Total cost (including shipping) was USD 4.30.
