SPY BI-WIRE interface with MSP430F5529

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529

HI,

 

I have MSP430F5529 development kit with JTAG it works fine.

We are going to use SPY Bi-wire interface for development.

Because of size constarint we are populating 4 pin connector on board.

Also we have EZ430-RF2500 development kit.

 

Thinking to use EZ430-RF2500 hardware along with MSP430F5529 will it work?

Idealy what should be approach?

 

Regards,

Rajaram

 

 

  • Yes, this will work.  Keep in mind the eZ430-RF2500 connector between the USB emulator side and the RF2500T radio target board is 6-pins.  Therefore you will need some way of converting from the 6-pin header to your 4-pin header.

  • Thank you very much!

  • We have built a board using SPY BI-WIRE interface of MSP430F5529 Microcontroller.

    We want to configure SPY - BI-wire interface option in CCS4.

    I am not seeing the option for selecting the SPY- Bi-wire interface in target configuration tool of CCS4.

    Cn sombody help to configure the CCS4 .

  • Hi Rajaram,

    the eZ430-RF2500 (and all other eZ tools) will show up under the Windows Device Manager as MSP-FET430UIF.

    You usually don't need to re-configure CCS when only one MSP430 emulator is connected (yes, you can use multiple ones at a time). Your degugger usually connects to USB1; refer to the scrrenshot below

  • Hi , Thanks ! We are using USB interface and have tested USB functionality is tested with C5529 EVM board it works fine. Once we flash same program on our designed borad it is not working on the same time it works with BSL code. I feel it is because of clock frequency which we are using. EVM works on 4 MHz and we are planing to use 24 MHz. What changes I need to make in USB code so that it will work properly at 24 MHz frequency. Regards, Rajaram
  • Hi ,

    We are using USB interface and the USB functionality is tested with C5529 EVM board it works fine. Once we flash same program on our designed board it is not working and  on the same board BSL code works. I could able to download firmware using BSL firmware upgrade tool.

     I feel it is because of clock frequency which we are using 24 MHz clock. EVM works on 4 MHz and we are planing to use 24 MHz. What changes I need to make in USB code so that it will work for 24 MHz frequency.

    I have modified below #defines in "descriptors.h"

    1.  #define USB_XT_FREQ USBPLL_SETCLK_4_0  to  #define USB_XT_FREQ USBPLL_SETCLK_24_0

    2.  #define USB_MCLK_FREQ 8000000  to  #define USB_MCLK_FREQ 24000000
