MCF8329A: Method to program EEPROM for production

Luke Fulton
Prodigy 20 points
Part Number: MCF8329A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MCF8316A, MSP430FR2355

Tool/software:

I want to use the MCF8329A as a stand alone motor driver. I have used the EVAL unit to setup all the control parameters in the EEPROM and I have a saved config file. I am now designing my PCB and dont want to have any aditional micro in the final design as space is very limited. How do I program the EEPROM with the parameter file I have without replicating the EVAL kit?

Thanks.

    Hi Luke,

    Please refer to this E2E FAQ for an example firmware project that uses the MSP430FR2355 LaunchPad to program the EEPROM on MCF8316A.

    You'll need to modify the source code to hardcode the register settings from your config file and change the array size accordingly. The default I2C Target Address for MCF8329A is 0x01, same as the MCF8316A, so you shouldn't need to change that.
