MSP430 USB

En un cursito que tomé hace dos años, tuve la suerte de ganarme un MSP430, pero no había hecho el propósito de trabajar con él. Ahora mismo me han dado más ganas de las usuales para poner manos a la obra y eso significa dejar el mundo social por un momento. ¿Bueno o malo? ¡Qué más da, la decisión esta tomada!



Description

The MSP-FET430U14 is a powerful flash emulation tool to quickly begin application development on the MSP430 MCU. It includes USB debugging interface used to program and debug the MSP430 in-system through the JTAG interface or the pin saving Spy Bi-Wire (2-wire JTAG) protocol. The flash memory can be erased and programmed in seconds with only a few keystrokes, and since the MSP430 flash is ultra-low power, no external power supply is required.

The debugging tool interfaces the MSP430 to the included integrated software environment and includes code to start your design immediately. The MSP-FET430UIF development tools supports development with all MSP430 flash devices.

Features

* USB debugging interface (MSP-FET430UIF) connects a flash-based MSP430 MCU to a PC for real-time, in-system programming and debugging
* Technical specifications:
o Software configurable supply voltage between 1.8 and 3.6 volts at 100mA
o Supports JTAG Security Fuse blow to protect code
o Supports all MSP430 boards with JTAG header
o Supports both JTAG and Spy-Bi-Wire (2-wire JTAG) debug protocols
* USB cable and a 14-pin conductor cable is provided
* Includes IAR Kickstart and Code Composer Essentials integrated development environments which includes an assembler, linker, simulator, source-level debugger, and code limited C-compiler
* Full documentation on CD
