MSP-EXP430FR5969: Implementation documentations

Part Number: MSP-EXP430FR5969
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FR5969

Dear Team,

Is there any Documentations available for modifying the firmware or implementing custom software for 

MSP-EXP430FR5969 microcontroller.

Regards,
Nikhil K

  • Download CCS and the MSP support. That will allow you to flash the firmware in the MCU. 

    https://www.ti.com/tool/CCSTUDIO

    TI has lots of videos and docs to get you started.

  • Hi Nikhil,

    I recommend you take a look into MSP Academy  It gives some step by step example to operate MSP430 peripheral, which might be a good reference.

    And the MSP430 MCUs Development Guide Book.

    You can also search the question in E2E or in TI.COM when you encounter issues.

  • Hi Sal,

    I have procured  MSP430FR5969 Lanchpad dev kit ,
    Below are my quries,
    1. I wanted to know which is the default uart pins conncted to OTG connector of the EVK.
    2. When i connected otg cable from EVK to pc i am able to see ttyACM0 and ttyACM1 port registering on PC, but there is no debug prints are shown, Does BSL bootprints will appear on this debug ports?
    3. i want to configure P2.5(pin20) and P2.6(Pin21) as my default uart and send and receive the data from the host pc, what are the hw and software changes  need to be done to achive this

    Kindly clearify.

  • Hi Nikhil,

    Please raise a new thread so that we can focus on one topic within the thread.

    Below is my feedback:

    1. I wanted to know which is the default uart pins conncted to OTG connector of the EVK.

    You can find it in the EVM UG: https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/slau535b/slau535b.pdf 

    PB2.0 / PB2.1

    2. When i connected otg cable from EVK to pc i am able to see ttyACM0 and ttyACM1 port registering on PC, but there is no debug prints are shown, Does BSL bootprints will appear on this debug ports?

    I don't think so, The BSL of MSP430FR5969 uses UART:

    The BSL interface is a communication interface and users can follow the protocol to write or read device. There is no debug ports for BSL.

    3. i want to configure P2.5(pin20) and P2.6(Pin21) as my default uart and send and receive the data from the host pc, what are the hw and software changes  need to be done to achive this

    The BSL pins does not support overwrite.

    B.R.
