2.1.5 How to Generate Binary-Format Files (TI-TXT and INTEL-HEX)

The CCS installation includes the hex430.exe conversion tool. It can be configured to generate output

objects in TI-TXT format for use with the MSP-GANG430 and MSP-PRGS430 programmers, as well as

INTEL-HEX format files for TI factory device programming. The tool can be used either standalone in a

command line (located in <Installation Root>\tools\compiler\msp430\bin) or directly within CCS. In the

latter case, a post-build step can be configured to generate the file automatically after every build by

selecting predefined formats such as TI-TXT and INTEL-HEX in the "Apply Predefined Step" menu

(Project → Properties → C/C++ Build → Build Steps → Post-Build Step). The generated file is stored in

the <Workspace>\<Project>\Debug\ directory.
