Good morning!
First of all, we are just starting with MSP43x so please have some patience with us ;)
We want to plot an ADC value on a chart by using a MSP432. We had success by following the instructions by this guy based on watching a global variable, setting a graph window in CCS and making a Breakpoint to update all graphs :)
However, the refresh rate is surprisingly slow. We are debugging via USB (XDS).
Some time ago, I worked with some Freescale boards. It was an ARM0. They have a tool called FreeMaster which effectively does something similar to the TI Graph tool but the refresh rate is quite high.
So my question is twofold:
- Can speed the debug frequency in CCS when using USB? I guess not. Is this frequency much higher if employing an external debugger like Jlink? The option to sample faster in the graph tool does not seem to increase anything.
- Maybe the Freescale tool is based on sending the values through an interface and printing them in an external graph tool like Processing instead of a memory access through a debugger? While this could explain my "problem", I was expecting a tool integrated in CCS, as the one I previously described, would be faster.
Ok, let's see what the MSP43x guys here can think ok :) Do not hesitate to propose a fast method to plot ADC! :)
