Energy trace not working.

Krishna Balaji
Intellectual 290 points
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FG4618, MSP-FET, MSP430FR5969, MSP430FE4272, ENERGYTRACE
 I have installed Code composer studio V6. I would like to power characterize my algorithm using the energy trace. I am using MSP430FG4618 with a MSP-FET430UIF Debugger. My energy trace technology is not able to record the power and energy graphs. I would like to know if the problem is because of the Debugger. Does Energy trace technology support MSP-FET430UIF.
         It would be helpful if you can resolve the issue.
  Please do tell me the best board and debugger of MSP that will support  Energy trace so that I can buy it.

    Nope! The new MSP-FET is compatible.

    Hi  Gautham,

          Thanks for your reply.If I buy the  MSP430FR5969 LaunchPad Evaluation Kit and the new MSP-FET will I be able to use all the features of energy trace (both energy trace and energy trace ++) for my algorithm.

    Regards,

    Krishna, only the kit mentioned below is enough. No need for MSP-FET if you're using this kit.

    Hi

    I figured seeing as my problem is suitable under the same header, I should post it here.

    Please do advise if you would prefer me creating a new thread.

    I also have a problem with getting energy trace working

    I have recently received the new black MSP-FET tool.

    I am running it on the latest CCS6.

    The target part is a MSP430FE4272.

    When I enable standard EnergyTrace (current profile only), and start a debug session, I receive an error message, saying that there has been a "JTAG problem".

    Upon resetting, and disabling energy trace, I can run standard debug as per normal.

    I have confirmed that the target board has JTAG routed correctly.

    Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

    Yes Gin, please create a new thread. You would get quick suggestions and it would be useful for others too.
