HI-TECH C for the TI MSP430

HI-TECH C for the MSP430 is a high-performance C Compiler for the Texas Instruments MSP430 devices. HI-TECH C is an industrial-strength ANSI C Compiler and includes support for 32-bit IEEE standard floating point and 32-bit long data types. HI-TECH C makes use of specific MSP430 features and using an intelligent optimizer, can generate high-quality code easily rivaling hand written assembler.

MSP430 C Compiler

Features of the compiler include:

• ANSI C - full featured and portable
• Efficient - equals or betters hand-written assembler code
• Modular - includes full object code linker and library manager
• Cost-effective - productivity gains rapidly repay purchase cost
• Portable - Comprehensive C library with all source code provided
• Complete - includes macro assembler, preprocessor and one-step driver
• Runs on multiple platforms: Windows, DOS, Linux, UNIX
• Listings showing generated assembler
• An optimizing assembler
• Multiple C optimization levels
• Unlimited number of source files
• Code wizard to generate MSP430 peripheral initialization and driver code included

Embedded Software Development Environment

HI-TIDE, a powerful development environment including full project management, a flexible editor and a fast, accurate simulator, provides a fully-featured front end to the MSP430 C compiler.

HI-TIDE will also work with JTAG debugger hardware, including the evaluation kits available from Texas Instruments.

Optionally, the compiler may be run directly from the command line, allowing you to compile, assemble and link using one command.

HI-TECH C for the MSP430 allows you to concentrate on developing your application, and eliminates much of the detailed, low-level coding effort. Our commitment to quality customer service ensures that you will have access to timely, accurate technical support when needed.

The HI-TECH C Compiler is continually updated to support new devices, optimizations.

Processors Supported by HI-TECH C for the MSP430

The MSP430 C Compiler supports all the Texas Instruments MSP430 devices (at time of compiler release).
