Another argument for MSP430 as a replacement for arduino and such is that even the smallest devices support reasonable debugger.
As for external devices: at least G-series need external components to generate reset pulse to reliably boot (it mostly works with reset left floating, but whether it reliably works is function of how quickly the power ramps up, I got burned by this on last project).
- cnvogel 11y agoRegarding debugging: I don't know what additional hardware you need to debug MSP430, but there's Atmel's AVR "debugWire" which works ok with gdb. http://www.larsen-b.com/Article/315.html http://www.larsen-b.com/Article/315.html I used it with a AVR Dragon (a rather full-featured, but still relatively inexpensive AVR programmer). You can use it with Arduino boards, of course, when you solder in the 6-pin ISP socket.
