Abstract

This chapter introduces the digital I/O system for the MSP430. Digital I/O provides a way for an MCU to directly read or write logic levels to pins on the device package. The digital I/O system is highly versatile as it can be used to implement nearly any functionality a programmer wishes. We will begin by looking at the general characteristics of digital I/O on the MSP430 and how they are configured. Then, we will look at specific examples of writing to and reading from pins on the MCU that are connected to LEDs and buttons on the MSP430FR2355 LaunchPad™.
