MSP430F6775A: DEBUG

Part Number: MSP430F6775A

Tool/software:

Hi,

I would like to ask, is there any tool that can be used to test whether there are certain bits of registers set during runtime of the program without use of pooling. I think that there are some bits set during debugging and it may cause problems when some misconfiguration might be "camouflaged". I mean in my case is the LCD_C module LCDFRMIFG still set after configuration during debugging. But it is not the case during pooling in normal operation while there is jtag programer connected. 

  • Hi Peter,

    Do you want program executing to halt while reading this register? Or do you just want to check its value during runtime? 

    If you just want to check its value during runtime, without connecting a debugger or polling, then you could just continuously send the register out using a serial communication protocol like UART or I2C. Then you can read the value with a logic analyzer to determine the register value during runtime.
