8.1.1.3.2 MSP430Ware

MSP430Ware is a collection of code examples, data sheets, and other design resources for all MSP430

devices delivered in a convenient package. In addition to providing a complete collection of existing

MSP430 design resources, MSP430Ware also includes a high-level API called MSP430 Driver Library.

This library makes it easy to program MSP430 hardware. MSP430Ware is available as a component of

CCS or as a stand-alone package.

8.1.1.3.3 Command-Line Programmer

MSP430 Flasher is an open-source, shell-based interface for programming MSP430 microcontrollers

through a FET programmer or eZ430 using JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) communication. MSP430 Flasher

can be used to download binary files (.txt or .hex) files directly to the MSP430 microcontroller without the

need for an IDE.
