1.1 About This Document

This document describes the functions that are required to erase, program, and verify the memory module of the MSP430 flash-based and FRAM-based microcontroller families using the JTAG communication port. In addition, it describes how to program the JTAG access security fuse that is available on all MSP430 devices. This document describes device access using both the standard 4-wire JTAG interface and the 2-wire JTAG interface, which is also referred to as Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW).

An example programmer system, which includes software (source code is provided) and the corresponding hardware, is described in . This example is intended as a reference for understanding the concepts presented in this report and to aid in development of similar MSP430 programmer solutions. In that sense, it is not meant to be a fully featured programming tool but, rather, is intended as a construction manual for such a tool. Those users who are looking for a ready-to-use tool should see the complete programming tool solution from TI called MSP-GANG Production Programmer.

An example programmer system, including source code and the corresponding hardware, is described in Section 3. This example is intended as a reference for understanding the concepts presented in this report and to aid in development of similar MSP430 programmer solutions. In that sense, it is not meant to be a fully featured programming tool but, rather, is intended as a basic guide to construct such a tool.
