CCS/MSP430F5438A: Downloading memory using CLI

Hello Team,

I'm trying to do a memory dump using CLI using the below command

dslite --mode memory --config=MSP430F5438A.ccxml --range=0x20000,131072 --output=dump.bin -e -g dump.log

Memory dump is working but the download size is 256KB instead of requested 128KB.

Is there something wrong with the command that i'm using.

Thanks,

Ashish

Hello Ashish,

The memory length to export is typically in words. A word on MSP430 is 16-bits.

Thanks

Ok, basically I need to divide the length by 2.

Thanks Ki.
