WDTA as an Interval TimerWDTA as an Interval TimerWDTA as an Interval Timer
As mentioned before, WDTA can be used like an ordinary interval timer if watchdog function is not needed. This is strictly a secondary property of WDTA and there are some limitations of it. Still I would thank TI for this dexterity because sometimes in big projects people tend to run out of timers.
Code Example
#include "driverlib.h"
void GPIO_init(void);
void WDTA_init(void);
#pragma vector = WDT_VECTOR
__interrupt void WDT_A_ISR (void)
{
GPIO_toggleOutputOnPin( GPIO_PORT_P1,
GPIO_PIN0);
GPIO_toggleOutputOnPin( GPIO_PORT_P4,
GPIO_PIN7);
}
void main(void)
{
WDT_A_hold(WDT_A_BASE);
GPIO_init();
WDTA_init();
while(1)
{
};
}
void GPIO_init(void)
{
GPIO_setAsOutputPin(GPIO_PORT_P1,
GPIO_PIN0);
GPIO_setDriveStrength(GPIO_PORT_P1,
GPIO_PIN0,
GPIO_FULL_OUTPUT_DRIVE_STRENGTH);
GPIO_setAsOutputPin(GPIO_PORT_P4,
GPIO_PIN7);
GPIO_setDriveStrength(GPIO_PORT_P4,
GPIO_PIN7,
GPIO_FULL_OUTPUT_DRIVE_STRENGTH);
GPIO_setOutputHighOnPin(GPIO_PORT_P1,
GPIO_PIN0);
GPIO_setOutputLowOnPin(GPIO_PORT_P4,
GPIO_PIN7);
}
void WDTA_init(void)
{
WDT_A_initIntervalTimer(WDT_A_BASE,
WDT_A_CLOCKSOURCE_SMCLK,
WDT_A_CLOCKDIVIDER_512K);
SFR_clearInterrupt(SFR_WATCHDOG_INTERVAL_TIMER_INTERRUPT);
SFR_enableInterrupt(SFR_WATCHDOG_INTERVAL_TIMER_INTERRUPT);
WDT_A_start(WDT_A_BASE);
__enable_interrupt();
}
Hardware Setup
Explanation
The demo here is a simple LED toggler. On-board LEDs are used. UCS clock settings are untouched and so all clocks are in their defaults. Firstly, WDTA is stopped to prevent a software reset.
WDT_A_hold(WDT_A_BASE);
Configuration of WDTA in interval mode is nothing different from WDTA in watchdog mode. We have to specify WDTA clock source and its divider. Here the clock source is SMCLK and the divider is 512000. Since we are using default clock setting, SMCLK is running at about 1 MHz speed. Thus, dividing this speed with 512000 results in approximately 500 ms interval. We cannot access WDTA counter and so we will have to use interrupt method when using WDTA in interval mode. Thus, at every 500 ms an interrupt is triggered.
void WDTA_init(void)
{
WDT_A_initIntervalTimer(WDT_A_BASE, WDT_A_CLOCKSOURCE_SMCLK, WDT_A_CLOCKDIVIDER_512K);
SFR_clearInterrupt(SFR_WATCHDOG_INTERVAL_TIMER_INTERRUPT);
SFR_enableInterrupt(SFR_WATCHDOG_INTERVAL_TIMER_INTERRUPT);
WDT_A_start(WDT_A_BASE);
__enable_interrupt();
}
Inside the interrupt, on-board LED states are toggled.
#pragma vector = WDT_VECTOR
__interrupt void WDT_A_ISR (void)
{
GPIO_toggleOutputOnPin( GPIO_PORT_P1, GPIO_PIN0);
GPIO_toggleOutputOnPin( GPIO_PORT_P4, GPIO_PIN7);
}
There is nothing done in the main loop and so it is empty.

Hello, what software are you using for the Hardware setup images and does it support simulation for the MSP430F5529
I used Proteus VSM for drawing schematics but it doesn’t support simulation.
Hi,
Im interfacing MSP430F5529 with MAX17055 fuel guage. while reading 16 bit value, the first byte im receiving is 0. so while reading multiple registers continuously the data exchange is happening, but im getting the correct data. Can anyone suggest me what will be the issue? why im getting 0 in first byte?
read16_bit data code:
uint16_t value = 0;
USCI_B_I2C_setslaveaddress(USCI_B1_BASE, slave_address);
USCI_B_I2C_setmode(USCI_B1_BASE, USCI_B_I2C_TRANSMIT_MODE);
USCI_B_I2C_masterSendStart(USCI_B1_BASE);
while (!USCI_B_I2C_masterSendStart(USCI_B1_BASE));
USCI_B_I2C_mastterSendSingleByte(USCI_B1_BASE, reg_address);
USCI_B_I2C_setslaveaddress(USCI_B1_BASE, slave_address);
USCI_B_I2C_setmode(USCI_B1_BASE, USCI_B_I2C_TRANSMIT_MODE);
USCI_B_I2C_masterReceiveMultiByteStart(USCI_B1_BASE);
uint8_t lb = USCI_B_I2C_masterReceiveMultiByteNext(USCI_B1_BASE);
uint8_t hb = USCI_B_I2C_masterReceiveMultiByteFinish(USCI_B1_BASE);
while (USCI_B_I2C_isBusBusy(USCI_B_BASE));
value = lb << 8;
value |= hb;
return value;
In code, after sending reg address, it will be recieve mode. its a type mistake
Hi, im trying to send the command from the terminal view. i can able to send the command and tried to blink p1.0 led in msp430f5529 controller, its working fine. And im using led driver IS31FL3236A interfaced with msp430f5529 controller, i can able to interface im getting the expected output.
now i need to send the command from seriak monitor based on that command i2c communication need to start. both communication are working fine, when it runs separately. its not working when i tried to combine.
any one had any idea, why it is happening or what will be the issue?
It could be due to:
1. conflicts in clock settings
2. hardware conflict like pin mapping
3. code is getting stuck or waiting for one communication line to finish
4. use of polling method instead of interrupt-driven coding
Hi, thank you for the respose.
Do I need to use different clock initialization for I2C and UART communication? if YES, can you explain how to do that?
I mean check which clock has been set for UART and I2C…. Is it SMCLK, MCLK, etc and is it tuned to right frequency required by the respective hardware?
Is there any example on how to implement polling method in uart?
Why go for polling method when it is a blocking method of coding? It is better to use interrupts instead at least for UART receive.
yes!! currently in my code, only for uart im using interrupts to recieve command from serial monitor. Im not using interrupt for I2C communication.
so the issue is must be in clock initialization. right?
For UART, im using USCI_A1_BASE. and for I2C, im using USCI_B1_BASE.
And another thing i need to ask is, in uart when i tried blink led(p1.0) in msp430f5529 by passing command. here, without clock I’m getting output. how it is possible?
And for both i2c and uart i gave SMCLK with 1Mhz
I am surprised and happy to find this tutorial on the F5529 as TI makes a lot of different devices.
Thank you very much for putting in the extra knowledge in each segment, made reading worthwhile.
Good Work!
lovely tutorial but to be honest I don’t think I’d be investing my time on this board to start with it’s not cheap and readily available as the stm32 boards can you please do more tutorials on stm32 board’s and the stc micros thanks
Hello, I try to program MSP430FR6047 but i get error “the debug interface to the device has been secured”. when flashing using uniflash and when program using CCS this happen. can you help me to solve this problem
You can try “On connect, erase user code and unlock the device” option.

Hello
I am doing project of msp430g2553 interface(using i2c communication) with temp 100(temperature sensor) and try to read the temperature in dispaly(16*2) but didn’t get the out put (using code composer studio) can u share me any example code for this project
Thank you sir,
Which sensor? Did you use pullup resistors for SDA-SCL pins?
Where is lcd_print.h?
All files and docs are here:

You want the truth? TI makes and sell “underpowered micros”, you know? Low everything, not only the power but also peripherals. So the price is not justified.
Otherwise, if I’ll move there, I’ll introduce them to my small hobby projects – there are still some advantages.
I may even make a visual configuration tool of my own for them…
Yeah the prices of TI products are higher than other manufacturers but I don’t think the hardware peripherals are inferior.
Not inferior but in not enough numbers compared to STM32.
