Texas Instruments MSP MCU Programmer and Debugger

The Texas Instruments MSP series MCU programmer and debugger is a powerful emulation development tool, also called as a debug probe. It allows users to quickly begin application development on MSP low-power microcontrollers (MCU). This has an USB interface to the computer, while the 14-pin connector provides access to the MSP debug emulation port – which consists of either a standard JTAG interface or by using the pin-saving Spy-Bi-Wire (2-wire JTAG) protocol.

• USB debugging interface to connect any MSP430 MCU to a computer for real-time, in-system programming and debugging
• Supports tri-state mode to show “accurate” EnergyTrace power numbers
• Up to 4x faster read/write speeds than the previous version of the FET programmer
• Enables EnergyTrace technology for energy measurement and debugging on all MSP430 and MSP432 devices in the Code Composer Studio and IAR Embedded Workbench development environments
