Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FR5994, MRD2EVM
I have been trying to develop a new product based on the TMS37157 and an MSP430 MCU. TI support has degraded radically over the past couple of years, and I really need to chat with what used to be called an FAE...ie a live human who is intimately familiar with the product, usually associated with a local TI sales rep organization like Arrow.
If a phone number within TI is not available, other than the generic support line, can someone point me to other end users of this product that might be willing to trade information?
Sorry, but Yes, I have tried following links on the E2E forums. The answers are either incomplete, misleading, or have links that go nowhere. Eval Software described in eval system manuals is not available, or the examples are trivial and not suitable for real product development. And it has taken months to identify an antenna manufacturer (other than Neoside and their US Rep) that can provide antennas that meet the specifications for the TMS37157. (coilcraft 4315TC-275GL--with many thanks to CoilCraft support!)
IF the TMS37157 IS a viable product with a long projected availability, I would appreciate a call from ANYONE who is familiar with the product...Inside TI, or a third party user. Please!
I can be reached directly at 1-619-794-7788 (PDT--California) almost any time.
