CCS/MSP430F5132: "MSP430: Trouble Halting Target CPU: Internal error" Microcontroller hangs when trying to debug.

Part Number: MSP430F5132
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TIDA-01485, MSP-EXP430FR2433, , MSP430FR2433, MSP430WARE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Reference design: TIDA-01485

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I have been working on a reference design TIDA-01485 after I downloaded the firmware and while debugging always getting the message "MSP430: Trouble Halting Target CPU: Internal error"  in the Console window. I have seen a few posting regarding this topic but still  I am not sure what is causing the issue. One thing I notice that it has something to do with clock initialization or interrupt handling because when I changed DCO Multiplier for 25MHz from 762 to '<500'  it was able to debug without any issue but the motor is still not running(I am aware that many other parameters also need to chance while changing frequency)..

Program is not executing properly for the DCO multiplier value above 500.

Using CCS Version: 9.0.1.as IDE and MSP-EXP430FR2433 development kit as programmer 

I will appreciate your support regarding this.

  • Hi,

    You cannot use TIDA-01485 firmware on MSP430FR2433 board directly. The firmware is designed for MSP430F5132. You need change the firmware to match with FR2433 including frequency, ADC, Timer, etc.

    Hello Hawken,

    I am using  MSP-EXP430FR2433 development kit as programmer to download the code into  MSP430F5132 microcontroller.

  • Hi,

    The clock initial sw is guranteed by many tests. Please test the MSP430F51x2_UCS_10.c example code from MSP430F5132's demo package which is included into MSP430ware. 

    Please let me know if you can run the example code.
