srec_ti_txt (5)

The ti\[hy]TXT format is used by the Texas Instruments MSP430 familty programming adapter.

The TI\[hy]TXT hex format supports 16\[hy]bit hexadecimal data. It consists of one or more sections, followed by the end\[hy]of\[hy]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\[hy]of\[hy]file indicator is the letter Wq followed by a newline. The end\[hy]of\[hy]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\[hy]txt file taken from the reference below:
