MSP430 20- and 28-Pin Package Board and USB Programmer Status: ACTIVE

Product Information

Description

In April 2008, the MSP-FET430U28 was updated to include a PW (TSSOP) socket target board. Please note that older documentation may still refer to the original DW (SOIC) socket.

The MSP-FET430U28 is a powerful flash emulation tool that includes the hardware and software required to quickly begin application development on the MSP430 MCU. It includes a ZIF socket target board and a USB debugging interface (MSP-FET430UIF) 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-FET430U28 development board supports all MSP430 flash parts in a 20- or 28-pin TSSOP package (TI package code: PW).

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:
• Software configurable supply voltage between 1.8 and 3.6 volts at 100mA
• Supports JTAG Security Fuse blow to protect code
• Supports all MSP430 boards with JTAG header
• Supports both JTAG and Spy-Bi-Wire (2-wire JTAG) debug protocols
• Development board with a ZIF socket fitting MSP430 derivatives in 20- or 28-pin TSSOP (PW) packages includes an LED indicator, JTAG adapter, and header pin-outs for prototyping
• 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
