MSP430F5438A: About firmware update

Hello Kiers,

The UART BSL can be invoked by calling the 0x1000 address from a software application, however the CPU will need to operate BSL instructions during the update before resetting the device or jumping to a determined PC location. This applies for MSP430F5437A and MSP430FR5964 devices as well.

Regards,
Ryan

I have a question.

Is it possible to update the firmware with UART without stopping the operation of the device?

Firmware capacity will be less than 128 KB.

It is possible, of course. But I am not sure if you can find open source solution for this. Similar topic...
