Hello,
I need BSDL file for MSP430F5418AIPN.
Where can I find it?

Hello Leonid,
MSP430 does not support BSDL files.
This info is from our old Wiki page and this attached thread: e2e.ti.com/.../472134
"All MSP430 devices have a JTAG interface for debugging, program development and Flash programming only.
This User's Guide SLAU265 describes the functions that are required to erase, program, and verify the memory module of the MSP430 flash-based microcontroller family using the JTAG communication port.
However this JTAG interface is not 100% IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) compatible. For example none of the MSP430 devices has Boundary Scan Cells. We only support the required command BYPASS, but don’t support the other required commands for example EXTEST and SAMPLE/PRELOAD.
Therefore there is no BSDL file for any MSP430 devices. In addition you can not put a MSP430 into a JTAG chain together with other devices."
Hello Aaron,
I know it, but in accordance to documents spra665a.pdf, spra597.pdf some devices:
" TMS320VC5420 DSP implements limited boundary scan capability with respect to standard IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan devices".
"The TMS320VC5421 DSP (hereafter referred to as VC5421) is a dual-core processor implementing standard IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan capability. "
So, I wanted to check may be it implemented also for the MSP430F5418AIPN.
If you claim that the MSP430F5418AIPN does not support boundary scan, so it is.
Thank you.
Hi Leonid,
Allow me to check with the team and I'll give you a reply by the end of the day.
Hi Leonid,
As confirmed by the team, all MSP430 devices do not support BSDL.
Leonid,
These documents are for the TMS320VC542x family, which is not part of the MSP430 family.
