CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION 7
1 Introduction
The Texas Instruments® MSP430® Peripheral Driver Library is a set of drivers for accessing the
peripherals found on the MSP430 5xx/6xx family of microcontrollers. While they are not drivers in
the pure operating system sense (that is, they do not have a common interface and do not connect
into a global device driver infrastructure), they do provide a mechanism that makes it easy to use
the device's peripherals.
The capabilities and organization of the drivers are governed by the following design goals:
They are written entirely in C except where absolutely not possible.
They demonstrate how to use the peripheral in its common mode of operation.
They are easy to understand.
They are reasonably efficient in terms of memory and processor usage.
They are as self-contained as possible.
Where possible, computations that can be performed at compile time are done there instead
of at run time.
They can be built with more than one tool chain.
Some consequences of these design goals are:
The drivers are not necessarily as efficient as they could be (from a code size and/or
execution speed point of view). While the most efficient piece of code for operating a
peripheral would be written in assembly and custom tailored to the specific requirements of
the application, further size optimizations of the drivers would make them more difficult to
understand.
The drivers do not support the full capabilities of the hardware. Some of the peripherals
provide complex capabilities which cannot be utilized by the drivers in this library, though the
existing code can be used as a reference upon which to add support for the additional
capabilities.
The APIs have a means of removing all error checking code. Because the error checking is
usually only useful during initial program development, it can be removed to improve code
size and speed.
For many applications, the drivers can be used as is. But in some cases, the drivers will have to be
enhanced or rewritten in order to meet the functionality, memory, or processing requirements of the
application. If so, the existing driver can be used as a reference on how to operate the peripheral.
Each MSP430ware driverlib API takes in the base address of the corresponding peripheral as the
first parameter. This base address is obtained from the msp430 device specific header files (or
from the device datasheet). The example code for the various peripherals show how base address
is used. When using CCS, the eclipse shortcut ”Ctrl + Space” helps. Type MSP430 and ”Ctrl +
Space”, and the list of base addresses from the included device specific header files is listed.
The following tool chains are supported:

Using assert statements to debug
CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION 8
Assert statements are disabled by default. To enable the assert statement edit the hw regaccess.h
file in the inc folder. Comment out the statement #define NDEBUG ->//#define NDEBUG Asserts
in CCS work only if the project is optimized for size.

To get started on a new project we recommend getting started on an empty project we provide.
This project has all the driverlib source files, header files, project paths are set by default.
CHAPTER 2. NAVIGATING TO DRIVERLIB THROUGH CCS RESOURCE EXPLORER 20
The main.c included with the empty project can be modified to include user code.
CHAPTER 3. HOW TO CREATE A NEW CCS PROJECT THAT USES DRIVERLIB 21
3 How to create a new CCS project that uses
Driverlib
3.1 Introduction
To get started on a new project we recommend using the new project wizard. For driver library to
work with the new project wizard CCS must have discovered the driver library RTSC product. For
more information refer to the installation steps of the release notes. The new project wizard adds
the needed driver library source files and adds the driver library include path.
To open the new project wizard go to File ->New ->CCS Project as seen in the screenshot below.
Once the new project wizard has been opened name your project and choose the device you
would like to create a Driver Library project for. The device must be supported by driver library.
Then under ”Project templates and examples” choose ”Empty Project with DriverLib Source” as
seen below.
CHAPTER 3. HOW TO CREATE A NEW CCS PROJECT THAT USES DRIVERLIB 22
Finally click ”Finish” and begin developing with your Driver Library enabled project.
We recommend -O4 compiler settings for more efficient optimizations for projects using driverlib
CHAPTER 4. HOW TO INCLUDE DRIVERLIB INTO YOUR EXISTING CCS PROJECT 23
4 How to include driverlib into your existing
CCS project
4.1 Introduction
To add driver library to an existing project we recommend using CCS project templates. For driver
library to work with project templates CCS must have discovered the driver library RTSC product.
For more information refer to the installation steps of the release notes. CCS project templates
adds the needed driver library source files and adds the driver library include path.
To apply a project template right click on an existing project then go to Source ->Apply Project
Template as seen in the screenshot below.
In the ”Apply Project Template” dialog box under ”MSP430 DriverLib Additions” choose either ”Add
Local Copy” or ”Point to Installed DriverLib” as seen in the screenshot below. Most users will want
to add a local copy which copies the DriverLib source into the project and sets the compiler
settings needed.
Pointing to an installed DriverLib is for advandced users who are including a static library in their
project and want to add the DriverLib header files to their include path.

CHAPTER 7. 10-BIT ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER (ADC10 A) 31
7 10-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter
(ADC10 A)
Introduction ..............................................................................................31
API Functions ............................................................................................31
Programming Example ...................................................................................49
7.1 Introduction
The 10-Bit Analog-to-Digital (ADC10 A) API provides a set of functions for using the MSP430Ware
ADC10 A modules. Functions are provided to initialize the ADC10 A modules, setup signal
sources and reference voltages, and manage interrupts for the ADC10 A modules.
The ADC10 A module provides the ability to convert analog signals into a digital value in respect
to given reference voltages. The ADC10 A can generate digital values from 0 to Vcc with an 8- or
10-bit resolution. It operates in 2 different sampling modes, and 4 different conversion modes. The
sampling modes are extended sampling and pulse sampling, in extended sampling the
sample/hold signal must stay high for the duration of sampling, while in pulse mode a sampling
timer is setup to start on a rising edge of the sample/hold signal and sample for a specified
amount of clock cycles. The 4 conversion modes are single-channel single conversion, sequence
of channels single-conversion, repeated single channel conversions, and repeated sequence of
channels conversions.
The ADC10 A module can generate multiple interrupts. An interrupt can be asserted when a
conversion is complete, when a conversion is about to overwrite the converted data in the memory
buffer before it has been read out, and/or when a conversion is about to start before the last
conversion is complete. The ADC10 A also has a window comparator feature which asserts
interrupts when the input signal is above a high threshold, below a low threshold, or between the
two at any given moment.

baseAddress is the base address of the ADC10 A module.
CHAPTER 7. 10-BIT ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER (ADC10 A) 34
Parameters
interruptFlagMask is a bit mask of the interrupt flags to be cleared. Mask value is the logical
OR of any of the following:
ADC10 A TIMEOVERFLOW INTFLAG - Interrupts flag when a new
conversion is starting before the previous one has finished
ADC10 A OVERFLOW INTFLAG - Interrupts flag when a new
conversion is about to overwrite the previous one
ADC10 A ABOVETHRESHOLD INTFLAG - Interrupts flag when the
input signal has gone above the high threshold of the window
comparator
ADC10 A BELOWTHRESHOLD INTFLAG - Interrupts flag when the
input signal has gone below the low threshold of the low window

ADC10 A configureMemory()
void ADC10 A configureMemory (
uint16 t baseAddress,

Configures the controls of the selected memory buffer.
Maps an input signal conversion into the memory buffer, as well as the positive and negative
reference voltages for each conversion being stored into the memory buffer. If the internal
reference is used for the positive reference voltage, the internal REF module has to control the
voltage level. Note that if a conversion has been started with the startConversion() function, then a
call to disableConversions() is required before this function may be called. If conversion is not
disabled, this function does nothing.
Parameters
baseAddress is the base address of the ADC10 A module.

to the memory buffer, the next input channel selected for conversion is one less than the input
channel just converted (i.e. A1 comes after A2), until A0 is reached, and if in repeating mode, then
the next input channel will again be the one mapped to the memory buffer. Note that after this

Programming Example ...................................................................................70
8.1 Introduction
The 12-Bit Analog-to-Digital (ADC12 A) API provides a set of functions for using the MSP430Ware
ADC12 A modules. Functions are provided to initialize the ADC12 A modules, setup signal
sources and reference voltages for each memory buffer, and manage interrupts for the ADC12 A
modules.
The ADC12 A module provides the ability to convert analog signals into a digital value in respect
to given reference voltages. The ADC12 A can generate digital values from 0 to Vcc with an 8-,
10- or 12-bit resolution, with 16 different memory buffers to store conversion results. It operates in
2 different sampling modes, and 4 different conversion modes. The sampling modes are extended
sampling and pulse sampling, in extended sampling the sample/hold signal must stay high for the
duration of sampling, while in pulse mode a sampling timer is setup to start on a rising edge of the
sample/hold signal and sample for a specified amount of clock cycles. The 4 conversion modes
are single-channel single conversion, sequence of channels single-conversion, repeated single
channel conversions, and repeated sequence of channels conversions.
The ADC12 A module can generate multiple interrupts. An interrupt can be asserted for each
memory buffer when a conversion is complete, or when a conversion is about to overwrite the
converted data in any of the memory buffers before it has been read out, and/or when a
conversion is about to start before the last conversion is complete.

8.2.2 Function Documentation
ADC12 A clearInterrupt()
void ADC12 A clearInterrupt (
uint16 t baseAddress,
uint16 t memoryInterruptFlagMask )
Clears ADC12 A selected interrupt flags.
The selected ADC12 A interrupt flags are cleared, so that it no longer asserts. The memory buffer
interrupt flags are only cleared when the memory buffer is accessed. Note that the overflow
interrupts do not have an interrupt flag to clear; they must be accessed directly from the interrupt
vector.
Parameters
baseAddress is the base address of the ADC12 A module.
CHAPTER 8. 12-BIT ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER (ADC12 A) 54
Parameters
memoryInterruptFlagMask is a bit mask of the interrupt flags to be cleared. Mask value is the
logical OR of any of the following:

ADC12 A IFG3
ADC12 A IFG4
ADC12 A IFG5

ADC12 A configureMemory()
void ADC12 A configureMemory (
uint16 t baseAddress,
ADC12 A configureMemoryParam param )
Configures the controls of the selected memory buffer.
Maps an input signal conversion into the selected memory buffer, as well as the positive and
negative reference voltages for each conversion being stored into this memory buffer. If the
internal reference is used for the positive reference voltage, the internal REF module must be used
to control the voltage level. Note that if a conversion has been started with the startConversion()
function, then a call to disableConversions() is required before this function may be called. If
conversion is not disabled, this function does nothing.
Parameters
baseAddress is the base address of the ADC12 A module.
param is the pointer to struct for memory configuration.

ADC12 A disableConversions()
void ADC12 A disableConversions (
uint16 t baseAddress,
bool preempt )
Disables the ADC from converting any more signals.
Disables the ADC from converting any more signals. If there is a conversion in progress, this
function can stop it immediately if the preempt parameter is set as TRUE, by changing the
conversion mode to single-channel, single- conversion and disabling conversions. If the
conversion mode is set as single-channel, single-conversion and this function is called without
preemption, then the ADC core conversion status is polled until the conversion is complete before
disabling conversions to prevent unpredictable data. If the ADC12 A startConversion() has been
called, then this function has to be called to re-initialize the ADC, reconfigure a memory buffer
control, enable/disable the sampling pulse mode, or change the internal reference voltage.
Parameters
baseAddress is the base address of the ADC12 A module.
CHAPTER 8. 12-BIT ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER (ADC12 A) 56

Introduction .............................................................................................102
API Functions ..........................................................................................102
Programming Example ..................................................................................103
13.1 Introduction
The CTSD16 module consists of up to seven independent sigma-delta analog-to-digital multi-input
and multi-converters. The converters are based on second-order oversampling sigma-delta
modulators and digital decimation filters. The decimation filters are comb type filters with
selectable oversampling ratios of up to 256. Additional filtering can be done in software.
A sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter basically consists of two parts: the analog part
called modulator - and the digital part - a decimation filter. The modulator of the CTSD16 with
fixed frequency 1.024Mhz, provides a bit stream of zeros and ones to the digital decimation
filter. The digital filter averages the bitstream from the modulator over a given number of bits
(specified by the oversampling rate) and provides samples at a reduced rate for further
processing to the CPU.
As commonly known averaging can be used to increase the signal-to-noise performance of a
conversion. With a conventional ADC each factor-of-4 oversampling can improve the SNR by
about 6 dB or 1 bit. To achieve a 16-bit resolution out of a simple 1-bit ADC would require an
impractical oversampling rate of 415 = 1.073.741.824. To overcome this limitation the sigma-delta
modulator implements a technique called noise-shaping - due to an implemented feedback-loop
and integrators the quantization noise is pushed to higher frequencies and thus much lower
oversampling rates are sufficient to achieve high resolutions.
13.2 API Functions
The CTSD16 API is broken into three groups of functions: those that deal with initialization and
conversions, those that handle interrupts, and those that handle auxiliary features of the CTSD16.
The CTSD16 initialization and conversion functions are
CTSD16 init()

Programming Example ..................................................................................116
14.1 Introduction
The 12-Bit Digital-to-Analog (DAC12 A) API provides a set of functions for using the MSP430Ware
DAC12 A modules. Functions are provided to initialize setup the DAC12 A modules, calibrate the
output signal, and manage the interrupts for the DAC12 A modules.
The DAC12 A module provides the ability to convert digital values into an analog signal for output
to a pin. The DAC12 A can generate signals from 0 to Vcc from an 8- or 12-bit value. There can
be one or two DAC12 A modules in a device, and if there are two they can be grouped together to
create two analog signals in simultaneously. There are 3 ways to latch data in to the DAC module,
and those are by software with the startConversion API function call, as well as by the Timer A
output of CCR1 or Timer B output of CCR2.
The calibration API will unlock and start calibration, then wait for the calibration to end before
locking it back up, all in one API. There are also functions to read out the calibration data, as well
as be able to set it manually.
The DAC12 A module can generate one interrupt for each DAC module. It will generate the
interrupt when the data has been latched into the DAC module to be output into an analog signal.

Introduction .............................................................................................117
API Functions ..........................................................................................117
Programming Example ..................................................................................130
15.1 Introduction
The Direct Memory Access (DMA) API provides a set of functions for using the MSP430Ware
DMA modules. Functions are provided to initialize and setup each DMA channel with the source
and destination addresses, manage the interrupts for each channel, and set bits that affect all
DMA channels.
The DMA module provides the ability to move data from one address in the device to another, and
that includes other peripheral addresses to RAM or vice-versa, all without the actual use of the
CPU. Please be advised, that the DMA module does halt the CPU for 2 cycles while transferring,
but does not have to edit any registers or anything. The DMA can transfer by bytes or words at a
time, and will automatically increment or decrement the source or destination address if desired.
There are also 6 different modes to transfer by, including single-transfer, block-transfer, and
burst-block-transfer, as well as repeated versions of those three different kinds which allows
transfers to be repeated without having re-enable transfers.
The DMA settings that affect all DMA channels include prioritization, from a fixed priority to
dynamic round-robin priority. Another setting that can be changed is when transfers occur, the
CPU may be in a read-modify-write operation which can be disastrous to time sensitive material,
so this can be disabled. And Non-Maskable-Interrupts can indeed be maskable to the DMA
module if not enabled.
The DMA module can generate one interrupt per channel. The interrupt is only asserted when the
specified amount of transfers has been completed. With single-transfer, this occurs when that
many single transfers have occurred, while with block or burst-block transfers, once the block is
completely transferred the interrupt is asserted.

The EUSI A UART API provides the set of functions required to implement an interrupt driven
EUSI A UART driver. The EUSI A UART initialization with the various modes and features is done
by the EUSCI A UART init(). At the end of this function EUSI A UART is initialized and stays
disabled. EUSCI A UART enable() enables the EUSI A UART and the module is now ready for
transmit and receive. It is recommended to initialize the EUSI A UART via EUSCI A UART init(),
enable the required interrupts and then enable EUSI A UART via EUSCI A UART enable().
The EUSI A UART API is broken into three groups of functions: those that deal with configuration
and control of the EUSI A UART modules, those used to send and receive data, and those that
deal with interrupt handling and those dealing with DMA.
Configuration and control of the EUSI UART are handled by the
EUSCI A UART init()
EUSCI A UART initAdvance()
EUSCI A UART enable()
EUSCI A UART disable()
EUSCI A UART setDormant()
EUSCI A UART resetDormant()
EUSCI A UART selectDeglitchTime()
Sending and receiving data via the EUSI UART is handled by the
EUSCI A UART transmitData()

17.1 Introduction
The Serial Peripheral Interface Bus or SPI bus is a synchronous serial data link standard named
by Motorola that operates in full duplex mode. Devices communicate in master/slave mode where
the master device initiates the data frame.
This library provides the API for handling a SPI communication using EUSCI.
The SPI module can be configured as either a master or a slave device.
The SPI module also includes a programmable bit rate clock divider and prescaler to generate the
output serial clock derived from the module's input clock.
