Jason, There are two possibilities here: This could be built into your code as a user interface that parses case statements (flash is not modified). You can develop an interface that will RX commands and then configure the USCI as desired based on those inputs. There are several ways to accomplish...

The MSP430 JTAG isn't closed source at all. It's well documented in the Programming a Flash-Based MSP430 Using the JTAG Interface App Notes ( slaa149) . The MSP430.dll, the interface between your PC and the FET tool, however, isn't open source. If all you're trying to do is build a simple...

Things to try/check: Ensure jumper JP1 on the board is set, to allow for proper TUSB3410<->EEPROM connections Make sure the MSP430 isn't interfering with the SDA/SCL signals (maybe it's driving one of its port pins?) Re-try using the EEPROM burner utility (including its driver...

Forum Post: Re: Flash programming

BrandonElliott

Hi Renka, I am understanding this question to mean that you do not have the 2nd image before you flash the chip with the original program, so you will accquire that image as the program is running. Depending on the size of the image you may not want to store this in RAM due to size limitations. You...

Hi Chakra, you're getting that error because you're using the free CCE v3 Core Edition which is limited to 16KB of code. (0x000047e2 = ~18KB) By default, no compiler optimizations are used but if you increase the optimization to Level 2, it should compile fine. You'll find the optimization...

Hi Tony, for MSP430 MCUs, typically you need two pieces of documentation in order to fully understand/program the device. There is no single document that contains all information. The device family-specific user's guides (such as the " MSP430x2xx User's Guide " in case of MSP430F2274...
