Hello everybody,
I want to use the MSP430F5510 STK.
Now I want to know, can I program this board with CCS5 and connect it with an USB-cable?
Or is it only possible to program it with a JTAG Adapter?
I hope you can help me.
with best regards
S. Westig
Hello Mr. Westig,
There is a bootloader in the F5510 chip. We have connected the bootloader button required to enter such a mode properly and you can use software such as http://software-dl.ti.com/msp430/msp430_public_sw/mcu/msp430/MSP430_USB_Developers_Package/latest/index_FDS.html (http://software-dl.ti.com/msp430/msp430_public_sw/mcu/msp430/MSP430_USB_Developers_Package/latest/index_FDS.html). Download MSP430_USB_Firmware_Upgrade_Example-1.2.1-Setup.exe at the bottom of the page. You can then compile programs with an IDE and create binary file and upload that binary to MSP430-F5510STK via the bootloader.
Generally speaking programming MSP430-5510STK without debugger is possible. However, it is kind of slow method, requiring a lot of board restarts (switching between run and bootloader mode). For good programming results I recommend using a debugger.

Hi,
I have a question : I use the tool from TI to upload prog to the 5510STK and it works
But, I would like use mspdebug on linux : is-it possible ?
maybe with tilib interface, but if that the case, i need libmsp430.so and where can I find it ?
I'm a very newbie in msp...
(and english is not my native language ;o)
Thanks for your answer
