oPossum 1,083 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Same TUSB3410 and F1612, but other circuitry is different. Firmware is not compatible. RobG and bluehash 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluehash 1,581 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Rob's boards are in. I'll be sending a couple down to him. The rest(first batch) will be in a GB. Thanks for the quick design Rob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the quick design Rob. Yay! I too managed to program a MSP430G2955 by targetting it as a F2274. Didn't have any success with the Blinky yet (but haven't spend too much time on it yet). Looking forward to see official support in GCC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fred 453 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Sorry if I'm covering the obvious (and I've not got a 2995 to test it myself), but are those of you using CCS on the 5.4 beta version? The notes say "New in this release: supporting Windows 8 host, GCC Compiler for Sitara/Cortex-A8, MSP430G2xx4 and MSP430G2xx5 series." http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Code_Composer_Studio_Beta_Downloads Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oPossum 1,083 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I am using CCS 5.3 with a MSP-FET430UIF via JTAG or SBW. Everything is working fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Here is 55.75 KB (2100 - FFFF) firmware with test pattern (and P1.0 blinking) that I prepared for MSP430G2955, so you can try it. Of course, if you destroy flashing tool and/or target device, it is not my problem. sbw_test_56.rar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TI hasn't even acknowledged my proposal that they support my efforts in maintaining mspgcc during the transition to the new RedHat toolchain. I'd like to provide this support for the community, but a new release is a fair amount of effort and I have to focus my time on things that might eventually produce income or at least are of direct interest to me personally. At this time I have no plans for another mspgcc release. Rickta59, gsutton and ike 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, but there's nothing technical in the way of doing this. I don't have any of the newest chips to use, but I have no reason to believe that they would cause trouble. It was only the change to the FRAM interrupt vectors that caused a headache that prevents using any of the current compiler releases with an updated msp430-libc, and I already have the required compiler modifications in place and have been using it for my own stuff. The issue with a release is that it's 20+ hours effort to do the git repository manipulations to pull patches into the right branches, build the system on a couple Linux releases, and run the test suite on a couple different types of boards. The next release should be an LTS one, probably based on 4.7.2, which requires a little more testing since it's a pain to put out patches. gsutton 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope Red Hat will soon be able to make their first release of a toolchain. But I guess that it might be quite far out in the future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jazz 209 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 My SBW+ programmer can flash MSP430G2955. Just to confirm that testing file "sbw_test_56.hex" attached in my last post is OK. So if you have problems with your programmer, trying to figure out how to flash MSP430G2955, use my test file. If you are able to flash MSP430G2955 with test file without verify error, and after flashing P1.0 LED is blinking, everything is OK. http://forum.43oh.com/topic/2972-sbw-msp430f550x-based-programmer/?p=33806 gsutton 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xpg 127 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Just programmed jazz' file using mspdebug with a small patch to enable MSP430G2955. It works just fine. Unfortunately, the forum software won't allow me to attach the patch. Patch attached. msp430g2955-patch.zip gsutton and bluehash 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
