MSP432-DEBUGGERS: Looking for Debugger that ACTUALLY works at 1.8V VCC

Part Number: MSP432-DEBUGGERS
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-FET, ENERGYTRACE

I need to debug the MSP432 that operating at 1.8V VCC.
Tried the MSP-FET and the XDS110 Debug Probes. They claim that they work at 1.8V VCC but it turns out they don't...

Is anyone here familiar with any alternatives?

Andrei,
Are you using the XDS110 on the LaunchPad or a standalone XDS110 like the following link?
www.ti.com/.../tmdsemu110-u

If you are using the probe, have you followed the steps indicated in the Users Guide for the probe to work at 1.8v: www.ti.com/.../sprui94

Are you powering 1.8V externally or from the XDS110?

OK got the XDS110 to work.
Do you know if it's able to report uA power measurements?

Andrei,

I don't see why not! I would refer to Section 3.6 of the XDS110 Debug Probe users guide for more information on EnergyTrace which can help you take the uA measurements: www.ti.com/lit/ug/sprui94/sprui94.pdf
