You can use this emulator online now at: http://www.msp430emulator.com/emu.html

• Providing a complete software model of the MSP430 16-bit instruction set

• An interactive debugger for advanced development and in depth firmware/hardware analysis

• Peripherals include:

  • GPIO Ports (LEDs and other pins)
  • UART Serial Communication (via USCI Module)
  • Timer_A (in progress)
  • BCM+ (in progress)

  The project goal is to emulate all peripherals and devices on the TI MSP430 Launchpad starter kit, to be able to run all firmware that would run on the physical device and test hardware inputs like UART or some of the other digital ports via programmable means. The emulator/simulator written in C is server which can be ran as a daemon. The user interface is accessed through the browser. This server and interface is available online at the link above.

  Please feel free to contribute! (TODO list below!) Also, we would like to hear from you if you are using this software!

  Please contact me at [email protected] if you are using this for something or would like more information on how to contribute. Let me know if you need something specific emulated! Thank you!
