EZ-FET Lite Problem

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2553, MSP430F2272, MSP-FET

Hello,

I am new to this and I have recently built a custom EzFET Lite board but am having problems when going to program using code composer. Board will program a MSP430G2553 when using IAR embedded workbench but will not program at all with code composer or in linux. It come up with an error that it could not set device VCC. Attached is a print screen of the error and the schematic. Have you any suggestions. What software package do you recommend to upload firmware to the programmer and what firmware should be uploaded. This should tell me if i am uploading the firmware correctly.

Thanks

Shane

Hello

It's the same for me, under IAR it works fine, and when i'm using a Code Example from CCS Resource explorer and want to download it comes also an error message, in my case it's: "Error initializing emulator: Interface Communication Error"

Hello all!

Now it works for me,

1. Restart Windows (Solving most errors :D )

2. Reinstalled CCS

3. Making all updates for it

Then the CCS makes a firmware update on the ezFET lite kit and then I can program a MSP430F2272

According to your schematics, the ezFet does not support generation of different target supply voltages. (the MSP-FET does).
So I wonder why CCS thinks it could set it. Perhaps a wrong firmware (feature set) loaded on the ezFET?
