MSPSim is a Java-based simulator of the MSP430 microcontroller.
Contents
Installation
After dowloading the last version of MSPSIM, it can be install by entering the command:
make
in the MSPSim folder. A Jar package of MSPSim can be created with the command:
make jar
Then a mspsim.jar is created in the directory. For simplicity, you may want to create an alias to MSPSim:
alias mspsim="java -jar PATH_TO_MSPSIM/mspsim.jar"
After that, MSPSim can be lauched with the command mspsim
Usage
We show in this section how to use MSPSIm on the Blink application. First we need to compile the application for the TelosB mote which uses the MSP430 microcontroller with the command:
make telosb
Since MSPSim can open ELF file we have to rename the program file:
mv build/telosb/main.exe build/telosb/main.elf
Then we can run MSPSim:
mspsim builb/telosb/main.elf
Five windows of MSPSim should open, in one of then you should see a picture of the mote with the LED blinking at different frequency.
