MSP430FR6987: Reading TLV with MSP-GANG

Part Number: MSP430FR6987
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-GANG

Hello,

is it possible to use the MSP-GANG production programmer to read the TLV section?

Specifically we want to read the device ID and device revision before programming the device.

If it's not possible with the MSP-GANG - is this at least theoretically possible using the JTAG interface?

Best regards,

Marius Schmidt

    It should be possible to dump TLV section with any JTAG / SBW tool.

    BTW, my MSP-GANG like programmer display this values during get device by default.

    Okay, that's interesting. So at least it should be possible but may not be supported by the MSP-GANG.

    What is an "MSP-GANG like" programmer? What hardware/software are you using?
    I didn't know there is another gang programmer besides the original MSP-GANG.

    TLV is just a memory, that can be read by any tool or by application itself. There is nothing special about it.

    AFAIK, all tools support memory reading, just specify for address TLV area.

    It is simple, low cost, faster MSP-GANG alternative with open source PC side / interface (there is no dll).

    For FRAM devices can be used standard SBW (4 pins) or faster SBW+ (5 pins) where is SBW extended by one extra line for data exchange.
