EZ430-F2013: Can it's USB emulator program MSP430FR Devices

Part Number: EZ430-F2013

Hi team,

Can this task be achievable? Goal is to use it to program this http://www.ti.com/tool/DRV8876-Q1EVM with a USB tool.

If not possible, let me know if there is an alternative to it and to using an FR launchpad.

    Per MSP Debuggers User Guide (SLAU647M) Table 1, no. It can only program F2/G2 series devices, and only some of them. It's not upgradeable, and the FR2 series didn't exist when it was built. (As I recall it programmed more than that list, but only F2s.)

    The MSP-FET is an obvious alternative.

    I'm not sure why you're rejecting the Launchpads. Any Launchpad with an eZ-FET  -- I think that's all of them except the "old" G2 Launchpad -- programs pretty much any MSP430. It's upgradeable as new devices come out. And it'll be cheaper than an MSP-FET.

    Hi Bruce,

    Thank you, we will not consider it for programming the EVM.

    I was looking for any other dedicated option such as this USB tool. The Launchpads will suffice.

    Thank you
