Again the same firmware should work equally fine with both the TM4C1294 and MSP432E. There should not be a difference however engineering is looking to confirm. Did you buy this launchpad recently?https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1660353/msp430f67641a-msp430-file-loader-verification-failed/6401687Wed, 01 Jul 2026 16:30:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:53d6755a-2542-4f20-bd7c-0e182d879142David SchultzThe programmer shouldn't be trying to do anything at address 0x200 since that isn't memory, So that is a hint that the complier is confused about where to put things. You don't need both of these lines: #include #include The file msp430.h takes the information provided by the compiler about the target device and selects the appropriate device header to include. So you have in effect included it twice. Those headers are generally pretty well protected from problems due to this sort of duplication but something could slip through.https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1657746/msp430f5342-cold-temp-high-power-consumption-issue/6401634Wed, 01 Jul 2026 16:02:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:efb497aa-273f-4d17-b9b5-bfa4fc79c54aDiego Abad SajaminHi Ryuuichi, I got the schematics, and I reviewed the MSP430 connections. Here are some comments: 1. Are the non-connected pins grounded? 2. When testing the current in the MSP430 , are all connections to the MSP430 pins disconnected from the device during the testing? It will be a good idea to isolate the MSP430 and see if the issue persists.

My board is based on the USB section of the MSP430F5529 LaunchPad design. My hardware connections are: USB D plus is connected to MSP430 PU.0 / DP. USB D minus is connected to MSP430 PU.1 / DM. USB ground is connected to board ground. The board 5 V supply is connected to the MSP430 VBUS pin. The same 5 V supply also goes to a 3.3 V regulator that powers DVCC and AVCC. PUR is connected to D plus through a 1.4 kOhm resistor. PUR has a 1 MOhm pulldown resistor to ground. VUSB and V18 have decoupling capacitors. The PC USB ground and the board ground are common. To enter USB BSL mode, I use this sequence: The board is fully powered off. USB D plus, D minus, and ground are connected to the PC. I force PUR to 3.3 V. I apply 5 V to the board. VBUS receives 5 V, and the regulator powers the MSP430 at 3.3 V. I keep PUR high for about 1 to 3 seconds. I release PUR. When I force PUR high, D plus also goes high through the 1.4 kOhm resistor, so Windows detects a USB device. However, instead of enumerating as the USB BSL HID device with VID 2047 and PID 0200, Windows shows this error: Unknown USB Device, Device Descriptor Request Failed My question is : Does the USB BSL HID device require any Windows driver, or should it enumerate using the standard Windows HID driver? Any guidance on debugging the USB BSL enumeration would be appreciated.MSP430F5528MSP430F5529https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1659242/mspm0g3519-mspm0g3519-error-connecting-to-target-when-debugging/6401338Wed, 01 Jul 2026 13:05:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:624b73a4-762e-4ee7-a851-29fe1aab02a7Pengfei XieHi Abhilash, Two quick question here: Do you use NONMAIN in your application? Is this connection issue follow with your firmware or it follow a specific hardware board?https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1660189/msp430fr2433-issue-related-to-lm4-mode/6401300Wed, 01 Jul 2026 12:35:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:ebe8beb2-4467-4209-aa4f-e3fed5ebef95David SchultzIf a module requires SMCLK then the clock request system will keep that clock running even in when LPM4 is set. Resulting in higher operating current.

Actually, I probed on I2C between TM4C1294 and ET chip 430G2453 with logic analyzer, there was no signal during power on or start capture data. And there was no output on 430G2453 DCDC control pin all time. I checked these pins are not ground/short circuit/float. I think something wrong with firmware.https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1660189/msp430fr2433-issue-related-to-lm4-modeWed, 01 Jul 2026 09:51:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:b04f6e51-401c-4d79-83a4-12780167c8c6Keshavamurthy KPart Number: MSP430FR2433 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-EXP430FR2433 We observed an issue related to LM4 mode current consumption on the MSP430 device. According to the datasheet, the expected current consumption in LM4 mode is approximately 1.5 µA . However, in our setup, the measured current consumption is around 0.114mA using Energy Trace. Current observations: Device enters LM4 mode successfully UART and interrupt configurations are enabled in the application Measured current is stable around 114 µA using Energy Trace Measurement performed on MSP-EXP430FR2433 Development board Any guidance or reference low-power examples would be helpful.MSP430FR2433MSP-EXP430FR2433https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1659242/mspm0g3519-mspm0g3519-error-connecting-to-target-when-debugging/6400906Wed, 01 Jul 2026 06:30:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:112ae30d-55d3-4958-8048-ec0a0111a8e4abhilash kPlease have a look on below code which might have affected the board , since board was in running reset mode before going debug port timeout in t32 Please have a look on below code which might have affected the board , since board was in running reset mode before going debug port timeout in t32 : FUNC(void, BSWM_APPL_CODE) Eb_Intgr_BswM_WaitMemDriverReady(void) { #if defined(BASE_MEMIF_ENABLED) #if (BASE_MEMIF_ENABLED == STD_ON) MemIf_StatusType status = MEMIF_UNINIT; #endif #endif uint16 iterCount = 0U; /* Loop until Fee reaches IDLE so it has time to write virtual-sector headers * on blank data flash (first boot / after sector erase).

I am still uncertain whether the MSP430 is at fault. The thread you referenced previously mentions that other external components connected to the MSP430 could potentially affect the device's current consumption.

The board itself was working correctly, but my firmware likely caused problems with the clock configuration or something similar. I was able to flash it successfully the first time, but then encountered the error and couldn’t recover it afterward. I was able to recover the device by performing a factory reset using UniFlash. Your suggestions really helped me identify and solve the problem—thank you!https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1658020/lp-mspm0g3507-unable-to-use-energytrace-with-onboard-xds110/6400194Tue, 30 Jun 2026 17:47:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:23526a41-9c6d-46ee-95ae-58b7f7f40542KiI am not sure what the issue is on your end. I have discussed further with engineering and they are looking into it. ET displays will only update when there is enough data captured. It usually takes at 10+ seconds of the target running. We're not sure why in your case in doesn't wait but instead stops trying to capture for a second and then giving up. Instead of a regular run, can you try a "free run" (Run -> Free Run) and let it run for awhile?https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp-low-power-microcontrollers-group/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/1659857/lp-mspm0g3507-device-id-not-recognised-while-importing-example-project-to-ccs/6400016Tue, 30 Jun 2026 15:57:00 GMTcb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:60b668f3-1f55-4991-9221-4e9906737bffKiUnfortunately it is not possible to install device support after an installation.
