Hello Aswin, The device family under which the MSP430F4250 falls is noted in SLAA322 as being one of the more sensitive in regards to crystal start-up and drive maintenance. The load capacitance depends on the crystal itself, not the MSP430, and the crystal datasheet as such should be referenced for the correct values. All suggestions in SLAA322 regarding PCB design and XTS software toggling should be followed for the best results. Glad to hear you are making progress on understanding hex output files, here are some more references: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Linker_Command_File_Primer en.wikipedia.org/.../Intel_HEX Regards, Ryan
