Hi All
I bought a msp430 development board (not from Ti) MSP430F5438A Development board from hotmcu, it is simple & low cost,
some
Description
The TI MSP430 family of ultra-low-power microcontrollers consists of several devices featuring different sets of peripherals targeted for various applications. The architecture, combined with extensive low-power modes, is optimized to achieve extended battery life in portable measurement applications. The device features a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and constant generators that contribute to maximum code efficiency. The digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) allows the device to wake up from low-power modes to active mode in 3.5 µs (typical). The MSP430F543xA and MSP430F541xA series are microcontroller configurations with three 16-bit timers, a high-performance 12-bit ADC, up to four universal serial communication interfaces (USCIs), a hardware multiplier, DMA, an RTC module with alarm capabilities, and up to 87 I/O pins. Typical applications for this device include analog and digital sensor systems, digital motor control, remote controls, thermostats, digital timers, and hand-held meters. And what we on sale is a development board, it has a BSL integrate circuit so we can download the program to the board more convenient. Simply by using a usb line. Maybe you want to do more periphery expansion so that we reserve 3.3v and 5v interfaces. Hope you can learn more and found more fun.

problem 1:
it include BSL Programming using USB convertor (chip CH340G) (work on Windows 10, device recognize (COM9) USB-SERIAL CH340)
and jumper was set
ch340 DTR -- msp430 RST
ch340 RTS --msp430 TEST
ch430 TxD -- msp430 DR P1.1
ch340 RxD -- msp430 DT P1.2
but could not find application to program it (use FlashPro 430 ver 5.6) but failed. (when start error box open "Programming Adapter has not been detected check cable or latest USB Driver" can you help to solve this part.
problem 2
Use MSP-FET430UIF (the white old device) recognize by Windows 10 (COM17) MSP-FET430UIF - CDC
recognize by IAR Embedded Workbench IDE 7.12.1 but not with CCS v 8.0 (how to solve this)
when connect to developing board I think to remove the jumper and connect
ch430 TxD -- msp430 P3.5 RxD
ch340 RxD -- msp430 P3.4 TxD
and supply vcc from usb and jtag
can it work ?
