Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-GANG, MSP-FET, MSP430F413

Hi Expert,

Good day.

Please help us verify if the old programmer MSP-PRGS430 would still operate in Windows 10?

Thank you.

Archie,

No this programmer will not work in Windows 10, nor with any currently available version of CCS. It might work on a Windows XP, but support for this programmer was dropped more than a decade ago.

Hi Jace,

Can you suggest a replacement for this? Can MSP-GANG will do the same?

Thank you.

Archie,

The newest debugger for MSP430 is the MSP-FET. We will be back in stock of this programmer soon.

MSP-GANG can only program devices.

Alternatively, you can grab any MSP430 Launchpad as it can debug/program any MSP430 that supports SBW (2-wire JTAG) programming interface.

Hello Jace,

Thanks for the recommendation.

Client would like to ask if we have one with RS323 connection? For them to not change any from their current system.

Thank you.

Archie,

The only available standalone debugger/programmer we have form TI for MSP430 is the MSP-FET linked earlier.

Hi again, Jace.

I need confirmation from expert.

Cx is using MSP430F413. Does the programmer/debugger (MSP-FET) supports this MCU?

Also, what software will be using for production for controlling/programming? They use labVIEW in their production test equipment.

Thank you.

Regards,
Archie A.

Hello Archie,

Please see Table 1: Debug Probes Features and Device Compatibility in the MSP Debuggers User Guide for device support information.

For production programming so the MSP-GANG tool.
