Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F2001

I am new to MSP430. I am planning to use MSP430F2001 for a small project. I have installed CCS. Please provide a list of the tools need on programming.

    Hi There, congratulations on choosing the ultra low power MSP430 for your project!

    You will want some sort of programmer/debugger tool.  There are several options but the easiest option (in my opinion) would be to spend $115 for the MSP-FET430UIF JTAG / Spy By Wire (SBW) debugging tool.  They have schematic for the components needed to program the MSP430F2001 via SBW on page 24 of the manual.

    Hi Corin,

    With the tool (  MSP-FET430UIF JTAG / Spy By Wire (SBW) debugging tool ), is it possible to copy the code from one microcontroller to another? I guess I have to load the code from the microcontroller to PC from CCS, and then program another MCU from CCS. Let me know how to read the code back from microcontroller.

    Thanks,

    Susan

    I don't know whether CCS offers this feature, as it is a development environment, not a production tool.

    The free Elprotronic software, however, allows reading a selected memory range from MSP into a file and use this file to program the next one.
    Of course only if the JTAG fuse wand't blown, preventing JTAG access :)
