CCS/TPS65835EVM-705: Evaluation Board programming

Part Number: TPS65835EVM-705
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65835, MSP430F2121

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello Community,

I'm a complete newbie in microcontroller programming.

For a project, I want to use the TPS65835EVM-705 (Evaluation Module for TPS65835 single-chip power management device) which is built with the microcontroller TPS65835 (Advanced Power Management IC (PMIC) with Integrated MSP430 For Active Shutter 3D Glasses).

Now I have the controller and shutter LCDs, which I'm supposed to control.

I didn't think this should be to complex, but I somehow don't find my way into programming the evaluation board.

I downloaded code composer studio. But here is my problem now - 
Using the resource explorer, I cannot find the full evaluation board(?). Does this mean, I have to search for the MSP430 instead?
With MSP430 there are many different options to choose from...

I actually feel kinda lost in options or with other words - don't know where to start.

Could someone give me a quick intro, on how to start if I want to work with the Evaluation Module and just need to control the 2 Shutter LCDs all with the default settings?

Best Regards and Thank you already. :)


PS: I'm open to use any other development tool/software in case I just choose the wrong one to start something like this...

    Simon,

    According to this other e2e thread, the MSP430 Core used in the TPS65835 PMIC is the MSP430F2121.

    This is the extent of my knowledge on how to program the MSP430 integrated in the PMIC, though, and this device is now listed as NRND so it should not be used in new designs that will go to large-scale production in the future. If your project is simply a proof-of-concept, I see no harm in using this PMIC but you should order as many samples as you need ahead of time to ensure you have enough inventory for your build.

    Thank you Gordon and Brian for the quick reply.
    As mentioned my project is only a proof-of-concept for a prototype. Will probably not even make it to large-scale anyways, as it’s only for a testing device.

    Thanks for the linking of this other thread, haven’t found that one before. Will try and use the MSP430F2121.

    BR, Simon
