MSPM0G3507: VREF selection

Part Number: MSPM0G3507
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG, CCSTUDIO,

Hello Brian,

Thank You for taking time to respond.

Please advise how to select the actual value of VREF+?

Regards

Ziggy

  • Hi Ziggy,

    To configure VREF+ in SysConfig:

    • Navigate to Analog->VREF->Basic Configuration
      • Set the mode to Internal
      • Select the preferred VREF+/VREF- configuration
      • Set the internal Voltage to 2.5

    Best Regards,
    Brian

  • Hello Brian,

    Again thank You for the effort, it is greatly appreciated.

    I must be horribly slow to catch onsince despite Your efforts to list the sequence I am desperately lost.

    Starting SysConfig affords me the oportunity to select VREF ( third last option option in the list of available peripherals).

    A selection page opens up to expose VREF.

    Nowhere in this list do I see a way to set internal voltage to 2.5V

    Am I looking at the corect peripheral option?

    Why is this software so obfuscated?

    If I may indulge in a bit of aussie slang as useful as *** on a bull.

    Gratefully 

    Ziggy

  • Hi Ziggy,

    Which version of SysConfig and SDK are you using?

    I'll include links to the latest SysConfig and SDK versions below:

    When starting a new design after selecting the Software Product and Board, you should see the following:

    Here are the VREF configuration options once the module has been added:

  • Brian,

    Please advise what software do I need to download and install in order to achieve the utility of the two page images You have attached?

    I thought simply by going online and running the online zero code application I could achieve what i am looking for... configure the internal VREF , set the ADC converter running and collecting data and displaying it via a 4 digit seven segment display. 

     A simple enough task. I am yet to figure out how to set the VREF, never mind all other tasks.

    I am approaching the level disappointment where, as noted in a previous post, i accept mammary glands on a bull would provide a greater degree of utility than this online zero code self laudatory application.

    So once again, can I set VREF to 2.5V internal using the online offering?

    If so what steps do I need to follow? Remember i am aggravated and require individual step by step instructions confirmed through personal experience of online application of said steps.Let me add I have achieved this above outlined functionality on an ATmega328 and ST bluePill  micro controllers yet the TI offering is a frustrating animal.

    I have also installed SysConfig 1.25.0+4268 but can not see where and /or how to access basic configuration ?

    Brian, let me close this by thanking You for the effort You have expanded in responding to my plea for assistance to date.

  • Can you send us a screenshot of what you see?

    Note the disclosure triangle in Brian's screenshot. Did you click the one in the basic configuration box?

  • Hi Ziggy,

    I am sorry for the confusion surrounding this issue. Unfortunately configuring VREF is not exposed to the user at this time while using Zero Code. There are plans for this to be supported in a future release of the tool. 

    If you prefer an online option, CCSTUDIO has one. It does require downloading a browser extension and the ticloudagent.

    • When launching CCSTUDIO from the previous link, it will provide guidance on all required downloads.
    • Once everything is installed you should see a page similar to the following:
    • Navigate to File->Create New Project. This will open a new window where you will need to select your device and the example project you would like to start from. There is no standalone example for configuring VREF, so I will use the empty example and TI Clang compiler for the MSPM0G3507 going forward. once the device and example have been chosen, click Create in the bottom right on the same page:


    • In the File explorer, expand the Default workspace tab and open empty.syscfg:
    • After opening the SysConfig file, you should see the following:
    • From here you can add a VREF configuration from within the ANALOG tab:

    I hope this helps. If not, please let me know where you ran into issues and I will be glad to provide further assistance.

    Best Regards,
    Brian
