1. Getting Started 
The MSP430FG4618/F2013 experimenter’s board is a comprehensive 
development target board that can be used for a number of applications. The 
MSP-EXP430FG4618
 kit comes with one MSP430FG4618/F2013 experimenter’s 
board shown in Figure 1 and two AAA 1.5 V batteries.

2. Devices Supported 
The MSP430FG4618/F2013 experimenter’s board is based on the Texas 
Instruments ultra-low power MSP430 family of microcontrollers [1, 2]. Residing on 
this board are the MSP430FG4618 [3] and the MSP430F2013 [4] microcontrollers.  
3. Tools Requirement 
An MSP430 Flash Emulation Tool (MSP-FET430UIF) is required to download 
code and debug the MSP430FG4618 and MSP430F2013.  Two separate JTAG 
headers are available, supporting independent debug environments. The 
MSP430FG4618 uses the standard 4-wire JTAG connection while the 
MSP430F2013 uses the Spy-Bi-wire (2-wire) JTAG interface allowing all port pins 
to be used during debug. For more details on the Flash Emulation Tool, refer to 
the MSP430 Flash Emulation Tool (FET) User’s Guide [5], which covers two 
different debug environments: IAR Embedded Workbench and TI Code Composer 
Essentials (CCE). Detailed information of their use is included in Appendix A.
