spirilis 1,265 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Little correction, XT2 is 4MHz Ah gotcha, thx. Does the USB subsystem use a PLL with this I guess? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cde 334 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 It's not host/OTG -- device-only. Cool thing is that hub -- able to access the eZFET and the F5529's USB device functionality simultaneously with 1 port! OOOOH oic. They should make that clearer.

I was of the impression that the pins would have to brought out to a BP connector. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boyhuesd 0 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hello guys, I see this link http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/EZ-FET_lite says that eZ-FET Lite "Supports all MSP430 devices". So we will have a real debugger support all MSP430 devices like FET-UIF with a relative low-cost (ofcourse without premium function like fuse blow-up), right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobG 1,892 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 OOOOH oic. They should make that clearer. It is clear, it says right there on the board "USB Hub" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Should receive firmware updates from the DLL too. It's "lite" because it doesn't have the premium features like JTAG blow (although isn't that flash-based nowadays with the F5xxx and FR5xxx series?) and adjustable Vcc voltage.

Fred 453 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Was this the "Sept 16th gamechanger" then? The stock levels in the TI eStore just went from "backorder available" to "Limited stock available. Delivery may be delayed up to 6 weeks." so I just ordered one. If you want one I suggest you're quick about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Interesting, I don't really need premium features, I just want a student-affordable debugger to help me deal with more powerful chips than those in valueline. I'm a silent reader . Visit the forum everyday especially in compiler section (look for info about new gcc port) and the blog . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm a silent reader . Visit the forum everyday especially in compiler section (look for info about new gcc port) and the blog . Gotcha... Fwiw, many of us have used the v1.5 LaunchPad with the higher-end chips but I understand certain features aren't supported (think multiple breakpoints get broken) so this should clear that up. It only does SBW of course, not 4-wire JTAG like the FET430UIF (so I guess, technically, it doesn't support "ALL" MSP430 devices right?) but I think most of the modern chips that are worth the bother have SBW.

Rei Vilo 695 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 So much has been already said... I tested the new LaunchPad with the BoosterPacks and libraries available for the former MSP430 LaunchPad and the Stellaris LaunchPad. I only had to change the name of the pins. The library for RobG's 2.2 LCD screen worked on the first test. However, for some BoosterPacks, I faced compatibility issues. For example, the Educational BoosterPack requires an analog input in pin 5, available on the MSP430G2553 but not on the new MSP430F5529. Same for the Kentec 3.5" LCD BoosterPack. I'm adding the pins map for Energia and an updated release of embedXcode. embedXcode will support the new LaunchPad once Energia 10 bluehash, RobG and GeekDoc 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cde 334 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 It is clear, it says right there on the board "USB Hub" You mean "One USB connection for emulator and target via the use of an onboard USB hub"? I thought that meant they ditched the composite device setup for debugging and serial for a two usb devices under a usb hub, which would get rid of any issues of needed custom drivers for the serial connection.
