stand alone for ez430 f2013

hello,

i’m a programming msp430 with IAR kickstart , i began 2 weeks ago, and i would like to move my circuit ( more than usb wire allows me)

i have some experience with stand alone program with TI DSP but i saw that on slaa096b

"Do not confuse the bootstrap loader with

programs found in some digital signal processors (DSP) that automatically load program code

(and data) from external memory to the internal memory of the DSP. These programs are often

referred to as bootstrap loaders, too."

my question is : is there a tool with IAR to burn memory with a modified program to make it stand alone ???

thank you for telling me if i’m very in the wrong way ???

and sorry for my bad english!!

edit: slaa149a.pdf contains a way of response(even if it’s for msp149) but i’m still confused :stuck_out_tongue:

F20xx chips do not have BSL. You have to use JTAG tools to erase/write the Flash memory. slaa096b does not apply to F2013.

TI makes JTAG tools. IAR makes one too. All of them have limited cable length limits. How far do you want to move it away?

Once the Flash is programmed, you can detach the JTAG from F2013. You can use F2013 standing alone and move it anywhere you want. Why do you worry about cable length?

thank you old cow :wink:

i’m working (student yet!) in an audio lab. About the cable issue, i’m trying the stand alone way for ez430 because i have to make some tests with bigs systems like audioPrecision (which can’t move like the computer…

when you say jtag tools, it was software or harware tools (maybe both) ???

do you think i can use the msp430 1613 which is just under the ez430U as the host ?? or do I need another msp430 between the msp430f2013(ez430D) and the usb part(ez430U) ?? i ask this question because when i disconnect the spyBi connection(= detach the 2013 ) , IAR do not seem to be able to program the msp430 1613 .

i hope my question is clear :wink:

thank you very much for you interest in my case

…i’m trying the stand alone way …

When you say “stand aloneâ€

i’m so stupid …

sometimes the simpliest thing is too simple to look real …

i’ve done it and it works very well …

thank you very much for your interest

baze , the way of complicating things :wink:
