2.3.4.1 Function Reference for 1xx, 2xx, 4xx Families

Reference function: WriteFLASH

This section describes one method available to program the flash memory module in an MSP430 device. It uses the same procedure that user-defined application software would use, which would be programmed into a production-equipment MSP430 device. Nonconsecutive flash memory addressing is supported.

This programming method requires a TCLK frequency of 350 kHz ±100 kHz while the erase or programming cycle is being executed. The frequency that must be applied to SBWTCK in Spy-Bi-Wire mode is the same frequency that is applied to TCK in 4-wire mode.

For more information on the flash controller timing, see the corresponding MSP430 user's guide and device-specific data sheet. Table 2-9 shows the required minimum number of TCLK cycles, depending on the action performed on the flash (for FCTL2 register bits 0 to 7 = 0x40 as defined in the MSP430 user's guide).

(1) MSP430 device dependent, see device-specific data sheet. See Section 2.3.5 for more details.

The following JTAG communication flow shows programming of the MSP430 flash memory using the onboard flash controller. In this implementation, 16-bit words are programmed into the main flash memory area. To program bytes, the BYTE bit in the JTAG CNTRL_SIG register must be set high while in programming mode. StartAddr is the starting address of the flash memory array to be programmed.

ReleaseCPU should now be executed, returning the CPU to normal operation.
(1) Replace with DR_SHIFT20("Address") when programming an MSP430X architecture device.
(2) Substitute 0xA540 for 2xx devices for Info-Segment A programming.
(3) Correct timing required. Must meet minimum and maximum TCLK frequency requirement of 350 kHz ±100 kHz.
(4) Substitute 0xA550 for 2xx devices for Info-Segment A programming.
