Here is a link that someone wrote for I/O for Launch Pad. http://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp43016-bit_ultra-low_power_mcus/f/166/t/73346.aspx
I don't know if that helps, since I don't have a Launchpad, but the concept is that you'll want to find some code written for it for CCS, IAR, or whatever compile is out there. Then take that code and modify it for gcc. adam -----Original Message----- From: Jesse Frey [mailto:jmf...@alaska.edu] Sent: Friday, November 16, 2012 1:57 PM To: Yama Ploskonka Cc: mspgcc-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Mspgcc-users] Launchpad UART using Linux tools? I believe that the msp on the launchpad does not have UCA0 so you have to write a timer UART. I think TI has an example somewhere. You should be able to drop the code into putchar.
