srec_ti_txt - Texas Instruments ti-txt (MSP430) file format
The ti-TXT format is used by the Texas Instruments MSP430 familty programming adapter.
The TI-TXT hex format supports 16-bit hexadecimal data. It consists of one or more sections, followed by the end-of-file indicator.
Each section consistes of an at (@) sign followed a execution start address (in hexadecimal), and newline, and then data bytes (in hexadecimal). The section address is followed by a newline. There are to be 16 data bytes per line, except for the last line in a section.
The end-of-file indicator is the letter q followed by a newline. The end-of-file indicator mandatory.
Size
Multiplier
In general, binary data will expand in sized by
approximately 3.0 times when represented with this
format.
Here is an example ti-txt file taken from the reference below:
