2.1 Physical JTAG Fuse (F1xx/F2xx/F4xx)

MSP430F1xx, F2xx, and F4xx family devices JTAG can be secured through a physical JTAG security fuse. The fuse is blown by the programming tool after JTAG or SBW programming. The tool applies a fuse blowing voltage (6.5 V ±0.5 V) on the TEST pin (on devices with a TEST pin) or TDI pin (on devices without a TEST pin) [see MSP430 Programming Via the JTAG Interface (SLAU320)] for more details. Blowing the fuse completely disables the JTAG port and is not reversible, and further JTAG or SBW access is not possible. After the physical fuse is blown, the device is accessible only through the password-protected bootloader, if supported and enabled.
