JTAG mailbox support

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2101, MSP430F5510

Does the MSP430G2101 support the Spy-Bi-Wire JTAG mailbox?

Thanks in advance.

  • No, it does not support the JMB system, because MSP430G2101 has no SYS configuration registers.

  • Hello,


    At this subject.

    I am using MSP430f5510 and i would like to use the JTAG Mailbox (JMB) System for Run-time data exchange.

    I have looked everywhere for examples of how to use this feature, but with no luck.

    Is this feature useable in MSP430f5510? If so I would be happy for some guidance of how to use it.

    Thank you very much,

    Itay.

  • Yes, this can be done with MSP430F5510. Examples can be found in...

    It is very simple and right way of JTAG data exchange with target device (TEST / RESET pins), but not the faster one. For max speed can be used quick read/write (IR_DATA_QUICK) because it request only one shifting per word, while mailbox system request 2 shifting per word. But of course advantage of mailbox is that target device can run free, not under JTAG control.
