MSPM0L1306: Difference in Standalone SysConfig and CCS included SysConfig

Part Number: MSPM0L1306
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG,

Hi Team,

I have been looking at SysConfig files for both standalone and within CCS (in one of the examples) for the LP-MSPM0L1306.

However, I see quite a few differences between the two. Some differences I noticed are below.

  • On the "Reserve Peripherals" tab, there are more peripherals available.
    •   vs. 
  • There is a hardware tab on the left side for the standalone ver. vs. no hardware tab on the CCS sysconfig
  • In the standalone ver. it has this board view whereas CCS sysconfig ver. does not have this.

Why are there these differences, and are there anymore that should be noted? 

Does this have to do with SDK version?

Best regards,

Mari Tsunoda

  • Hi, 

    You can see your syscfg version here:

    The latest version is Version: 1.18.0.3266 Release date: 04 Oct 2023

    On the "Reserve Peripherals" tab, there are more peripherals available

    Check your version first. Here is the same.

    In the standalone ver. it has this board view whereas CCS sysconfig ver. does not have this.

    For hardware section and this question, please change the LaunchPad or device by click image button below:

    Then click switch button to change LaunchPad or Board-None and Device-L1306.

  • Hi Helic,

    Thanks for your response.

    I updated and re-checked everything, but still the same result for me. Do you have any differences between your CCS Sysconfig vs. standalone sysconfig or is this only an issue on my laptop?

    Best,

  • Hi, 

    Here is the same of device L1306:

    At sysconfig side, you need try this at start:

    At CCS, right click project - properties - general - products:

    Besides, we don't usually use reserve peripheral, software is more commonly used.

  • Hi Helic,

    Thanks for the super quick response. I see what you mean now.

    Why is it that the ccs sysconfig opens up the 'board unselected' 'mspm0l1306' device for the example codes, when I choose for LP-MSPM0L1306, and not the LP specific sysconfig.

  • Hi Helic,

    Also, follow-up question: when should I pick the LP board specific sysconfig? or should I always just pick the board unselected option.

    Best regards,

  • Hi, 

    It has a board view for easier hardware preview.

    Actually, both board and device share the same MCU chip L1306.

    follow-up question: when should I pick the LP board specific sysconfig? or should I always just pick the board unselected option.

    There is no specific requirement to choose between them, because example code all use device selection, so

    I usually use device-L306 instead of board LP-L1306.

  • Hi Helic,

    Thanks for your quick response.

    In the standalone ver. it has this board view whereas CCS sysconfig ver. does not have this.

    I understand this now.

    So there is no code generation differences between the board vs device selection then?

    Thanks,

    Mari

  • Hi, 

    So there is no code generation differences between the board vs device selection then?

    Why not have a quick test for that?

    Compare the file ti_msp_dl_config.x is OK.
