Configuration

Please use lpmsp430g2553 ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

[env:lpmsp430g2553]
platform = timsp430
board = lpmsp430g2553

You can override default TI LaunchPad MSP-EXP430G2553LP settings per build environment using board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from board manifest lpmsp430g2553.json. For example, board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.

[env:lpmsp430g2553]
platform = timsp430
board = lpmsp430g2553

; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = msp430g2553

; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 16000000L

Debugging

Debugging - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

Warning

You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).

TI LaunchPad MSP-EXP430G2553LP has on-board debug probe and IS READY for debugging. You don’t need to use/buy external debug probe.
