Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F2131
Hello,
MSP430F2112 erases the information memory when it receives a wrong RX PASSWORD.
Regarding this behavior, my customer asked me a couple of questions. Please advise:
Q1. Why TI decided to erase the information memory? Is it for a security improvement?
Q2. A wrong RX PASSWORD erases the information memory, what was the target application of the behavior?
My customer thinks the behavior is troublesome and hesitate to try.
They have an on-board BSL host and it updates the MSP430F2112 flash memory in field.
They are afraid that the MSP receive a wrong RX PASSWORD command and erase the information memory. It would introduce a device return.
