Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FR2422, MSP-FET, MSP-TS430RHL20, MSP430FR2433
Dear Forum,
I would like to request some support from your side because I found a serious issue by using the MSP-GANG programmer to program the MSP430FR2422.
I purchased two of them, and both show this behaviour.
Attached you will find a pdf-file "TI-Supportanfrage.pdf" with more details on the setup and the used software.
In the past I program the MSP430FR2422 devices with an MSP-FET over SBW interface (also the same device several times) with the command line options without any issue or error.
Now I will use the MSP-GANG programmer and to program the same design with MSP430FR2422 device with the same code and the MSP-GANG software (GUI).
I was able to program a new device for the first time without any issue, but erase, verify or read the same device failed with "Error 23: MCU device initialization". Also, the re-programming failed with this error
- I try this with the MSP-TS430RHL20 ZIF-socket with SBW-interface
- And with direct connected Device to the MSP-GANG programmer
- I choose internal power (3V3), with and without delay, 30mA and 50mA
- I choose external power and power the device by myself
- I connected the device directly to the MSP-GANG programmer
- I choose all three different speed settings for SBW-Interface
- The Secure Device Option is NOT SET
What did I do than!
- I tried to erase the MSP-device with the MSP-GANG without success.
- Then I try the same with the MSP-FET with success!!
- And now I was able to re-program the MSP-device with the MSP-GANG programmer for one time
- te re-programm the MSP430 again, I have to erase it with my MSP-FET and it works for the next program process.
Have you got any suggestions how to fix this issue?
With kind regards
Rolf
Connection between MSP-GANG and the current design.
Alternative method to program the MSP-device with the ZIF-socket board MSP-TS430RHL20.
This is an extract of my HEX-File which is used for the MSP430FR2422 device with MAS-FET and MSP-GANG.
The GUI version ans also the programmer firmware version should be the latest one.
Above you’ll see the current settings,
Secure Device Option = not set
Programmer will supply the device, the MSP-TS430RHL20. No additional electronics connected.
SBW Interface selected and currently the fast speed. I also tried to use both other options.
