I cannot recommend it enough. I come from an EE background, but haven’t worked with micros in 20 years. I read the TI datasheet and user manual for the MSP430 available on their website, and watched some of their online videos. But I found myself frequently drowning in too many details, un-introduced topics or features, and esoteric device quirks. This book covers the MSP430 at a slightly higher level of abstraction than the datasheets and user manual. The book introduces concepts one by one in a way that makes sense. It dives into details slowly, and only after introducing you to enough high level concepts (and sometimes device quirks) that those finer details make sense. Some of the later chapters on ADC, sigma delta converters, etc. may be too complex for the beginner, or too simplistic for an expert, but I felt appropriate for someone with a 1+ year background in electronics like myself. Again, a fantastic book for the MSP430, and a great book for learning microcontroller concepts in general. Get it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The book is excellent. The electronic format sucks *by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2016* The book is excellent. The electronic format sucks.Keeping in mind this is a reference book:1. The index of my book has no page numbers or links to the content, rendering it of no use. It consists literally of text, nothing else.2. References to page numbers in the text have no links, rendering these also useless.3. There are no page numbers (no rendering as a page). This is a book without pages. Strange, and the "location" marker is of absolutely no use.4. There is no search feature. If it existed, then I could at least search for the text that I wish to find.5. I paid almost $50 for a reference book without a means of finding the contents within it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the quick-start guide despite how thick it is *by T***P on Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2011* This is just the book to read if you are somewhat familiar with digital electronics and microprocessors and want to get moving quickly in programming a TI MSP430. While it is pretty thick, it covers all the capabilities of a 430 in just the right level of detail for someone with some digital logic experience and a cursory understanding of assembly language.Pro: chapters are organized by topic with lots of examples; covers both C and assembly language; written at just the right level for someone to get started with a 430; explains what's going on in assembly to help understand what C will do; lots of details about real-world interface examples such as driving an LCD (harder than one thinks); this is the book TI has in their booth at trade showsCons: a little too much focus on assembly as a target language; some topics get introduced in a chapter before the chapter dedicated to them, which leads to more hopping around in the book than I care forIf you buy only one book on the 430, this one would be money well spent. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.my/products/132056358-msp430-microcontroller-basics](https://www.desertcart.com.my/products/132056358-msp430-microcontroller-basics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Malaysia* *Store origin: MY* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
