There are pre-production samples in existence but I don't think all the bugs have been shaken out of the silicon yet. I'm not entirely sure when the final silicon is due to be available and I don't know what the availability of the samples is right now.
If you are an existing TI customer the best thing to probably do is ask your FAE if there's any way that they can get you early samples. The samples are pretty scarce right now though (I have trouble getting them myself) so I'm guessing you won't be able to get a hold of anything just yet. I only handle the TI tools so I'm not sure when the MSPGCC folks will get the info they need to do their MSPX support. If all you're looking for is "not IAR", there will be a version of CCE coming out soon to support these devices but unfortunately we're not currently targeting Linux as a host platform yet, despite my desire to do so. Implementing support for MSPX in GDB is not exactly trivial so don't expect it overnight in MSPGCC. It took us a few months to iron out all the details and get it "right" for our own gdb430. ___________________________________________ Chris Recoskie Software Designer Texas Instruments, Toronto http://eclipse.org/cdt > -----Original Message----- > From: mspgcc-users-ad...@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:mspgcc-users- > ad...@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of David Smead > Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2006 8:17 PM > To: mspgcc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: RE: [Mspgcc-users] MSP430FG461X > > Linear addressing is good.
