Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F149, MSP-FET
I've been using a MSP430-FET430UIF (V4, V1.4a) for several years on MSP430f149, 249, 5437 devices. All of a sudden it is rendered "unknown" to
the CCS5.5 composor studio I've been using (Error connecting to the target: Unknown device). I've combed through the forms and did find one
(e2e.ti.com/.../237389) that seemed to describe the similar behavior I'm seeing which gave directions to
update the firmware using the MSPFlasher utility . I updated and the firmware version in the FET is: 3.11.01.003
It seems to update fine but I get an error:
* FET firmware is up to date.
* Reading FW version...done
* Setting VCC to 3000mV...done
* Accessing device...
# Exit: 16
# ERROR: The Debug Interface to the device has been secured
* Powering down...done
* Disconnecting from device...done
Downloaded the Elprotronic FET-PRO430 Flash Programmer and determined the firmware version in my FET is 3.11.01.003 which is the
same firmware version 3.11.01.003 so I figured the FET is loaded with the correct firmware. The FET enumerates as MSP-FET430UIF-CDC (COM5).
I tried following directions from another thread (e2e.ti.com/.../183022) to program the
TUSB device as it would appear this firmware for the communications may be corrupted based upon the type of error message I'm
seeing. There is a path to download the TI USB EEPROM Burner Utility for the TUSB3410 (Rev. A) in the thread that is not longer
available.
Would like to determine a simple way to update this firmware. Spending way too much time on this.
