Hello,
I am working on project to design sensor network. I want to send my data over internet. I read the TI manual (slaa 137a) regarding internet connectivity of MSP430. They have shown interfacing between MSP430F149 and CS8900A ethernet controller. I am working on MSP430F5438A. I want to know is it possible to interface MSP430F5438A with CS8900A as shown in manual. If it is possible then should I interface CS8900A with any general purpose port of MSP430F5438. Shall I need RTOS for MSP430F5438 to implement ethernet connectivity?
