Hi
Just received a brand new devboard: MSP-TS430PZ100 (http://www.ti.com/tool/msp-ts430pz100)
Every jumper is left as it is from factory (J6,J7 on), no external power, just the FET430UIF connected to the JTAG port.
Brand new MSP430F4784 introduced in it.
CCS5.1: Error connecting to the target: Unknown device
CCS4.2: Programming works well - no problem.
So it's not a hardware design as it was suggested on this link: http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/t/155664.aspx
since the TI devboard reacts in the same way - doesn't work with CCS5.1, v3 FET-UIF firmware
Might be it's the power failure bug mentioned by Lisa in the previous link but I would need to know what is happening since this issue is a showstopper in our development. I have doubts about power failure since the AFE253 board works well with CCS5.1 with power from the FET-UIF (same 4 fire jtag setup).
Tried Andreas's fix as well from this link: http://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp43016-bit_ultra-low_power_mcus/f/166/t/155784.aspx
The results are the same - probably it fixes only for BT5xxx family (if it does).
Regards, B.
