IAR Embedded Workbench for MSP430 IAR SystemsEmbedded Workbench 5.40

IAR Embedded Workbench for MSP430 is a complete, integrated development environment from IAR Systems for building, debugging, and optimizing applications on Texas Instruments MSP430 microcontrollers. It combines a powerful C/C++ compiler, assembler, linker, and the C-SPY Debugger with an intuitive project manager and editor, enabling efficient workflows from prototype to production. The toolchain is known for generating compact, high-performance code and offers broad device support across the MSP430 family, along with both simulator-based and on-target debugging through interfaces such as JTAG and Spy‑Bi‑Wire using MSP‑FET and eZ‑FET probes.

Key features:

• Highly optimizing IAR C/C++ Compiler for small code size and fast execution
• C-SPY Debugger with device-aware debugging, breakpoints, watch windows, and a built-in simulator
• Extensive MSP430 device and peripheral support with ready-to-use project templates and examples
• On-target debugging via MSP‑FET and eZ‑FET, supporting JTAG and Spy‑Bi‑Wire
• Optional code quality tools: C-STAT static analysis and C-RUN runtime analysis
• Command-line build and automation support for continuous integration workflows
• Integrated help, documentation, and project management to streamline development

This toolchain is designed to help embedded developers deliver reliable, optimized MSP430 applications faster, with a smooth path from code creation to hardware debugging and final release.
