I only have limited time for experimentation and possibly i can live
with the 40KB limitation. To clarify would this limitation be 40KB*4
banks so 160KB total or actually only 40KB?
Does the 02/18/2010 mspgcc4 release have all the patches you mentioned?
It seems like the patches are
* 430x/430x2 language extensions for increase flash size
* header file fixes
* 32-bit multiplication function uses wrong address for hardware
multiplier
Any central place I can look to understand the current limitations and
workarounds?
Are there multiple parallel efforts happening or is this all under the
mspgcc4 (?) cvs?
Switching to 5418/5419 is not an option since I already have hardware in
hand....

The MSPGCC build from 12/08 already knows wo these 6 processors. I use it for

This build, however, does not have support for the 430X language extension, so
only the first 40K of flash are usable.
There are brances of the MSPGCC wich support the 430X architecture, even based
on GCC4.0 instead of 3.23, but these are still udner development and unless you
want to experiment or even contribute to the compiler
development, I don't really recommend them. (This might change soon as the
development seems to make progress)
As long as you use the 54xx devices rather for their improved hardware modules
than for the additional flash, the older compiler from 12/08 does its job.
Then the 5418/5419 are a really good choice and siginficantly cheaper than the
5438 type.
You'l need, however, to download the vastly improved header files from the
sourceforge CVS repository. Many additions have been mader after this compiler
release.
And, you'll need to fix the 32 bit multiplication function in gcclib, as it
addresses the hardware multiplyer at the wrong address (you can fix this by
including your own version in your project source code, I postet the code
some weeks ago in this list)

Betreff: [Mspgcc-users] support for msp430F5437
Hi all!
I have a new project that I'm working on using the TI MSP430F5437. I am
trying to determine if there is an existing generic MSP430 MCU flag that
I can use or if support for any of the 54xx series has been added yet.
I saw the addNewDevice page in the FAQ. If I go that route how do I
submit it for inclusion in the repository?
If you are interested here is a description of this series of MCU...
