Software Installation and Debugging
3.1
Software
Texas Instruments' Code Composer Studio (CCS) is an MSP430 integrated development environment
(IDE) designed specifically to develop applications and program MSP430 devices. CCS, CCS Core
Edition, and IAR Embedded Workbench can all be used to evaluate the example software for the
Experimenter's Board. The compiler limitation of 8KB prevents IAR KickStart from being used for the
evaluation of the example software. The example software, titled "User Experience," is available online as
MSP-EXP430F5529 Experimenter's Board User Experience Software.
3.2
Download the Required Software
Different development software tools are available for the MSP-EXP430F5529 Experimenter's Board

Hardware Overview
Figure 5 and Figure 6 show the functional blocks and connections of the MSP-EXP430F5529
Experimenter's Board. The area of the PCB labeled as "eZ430-FET Emulator" and bordered by a thick
broken line on the PCB silk screen is an integrated TI Flash Emulation Tool (FET) which is connected to
the Experimenter's Board by the jumpers on JP16. This module is similar to any eZ430 emulator, and
provides real-time in-system Spy-Bi-Wire programming and debugging through a USB connection to a PC.
Using the eZ430-FET Emulator module eliminates the need for using an external MSP430 Flash
Emulation Tool (MSP-FET430UIF). However, full speed 4-wire JTAG communication is only possible with
a MSP-FET430UIF connected to the "5529 JTAG" header. For additional details on the installation and
usage of the Flash Emulation Tool, Spy-Bi-Wire and JTAG, see the MSP430 Hardware Tools User's
Guide.

eZ-FET Emulator
The connection between the eZ-FET emulator and the MSP-EXP430F5529 can be opened by removing
the jumpers on JP16. This is necessary only to ensure there is no interaction between the two subsystems. The eZ-FET Emulator can program other eZ430 tools such as the eZ430-F2013 target board as
well. A six-pin header on J17 would need be installed on the PCB for this feature.
The USB interface on the eZ-FET emulator also allows for UART communication with a PC host, in
addition to providing power to Experimenter's Board when the power switch is set to 'eZ'. The USCI
module in the MSP430F5529 supports the UART protocol that is used to communicate with the TI
TUSB3410 device on the eZ-FET emulator for data transfer to the PC.

MSP-EXP430F5529 Hardware Components
Dot-Matrix LCD
The EA DOGS102W-6 is a dot-matrix LCD with a resolution of 102x64 pixels. The LCD has a built-in
back-light driver that can be controlled by a PWM signal from the MSP430F5529, pin P7.6. The
MSP430F5529 communicates with the EA DOGS102W-6 through an SPI-like communication protocol. To
supplement the limited set of instructions and functionalities provided by the on-chip LCD driver, an LCD
driver has been developed for the MSP430F5529 to support additional functionalities such as font set and
graphical utilities. More information on the LCD can be obtained from the manufacturer's data sheet.

Wireless Evaluation Module Interface
Included in the communication peripherals are the headers that support the CC-EM boards from TI. The
transceiver modules connect to the USCI of the MSP430F5529 configured in SPI mode using the UCB0
peripheral. Libraries that interface the MSP430 to these transceivers are available at www.ti.com/msp430
under the Code Examples tab. The RF PWR jumper must be populated to provide power to the EM
daughterboard. The following radio daughter cards are compatible with the MSP-EXP430F5529
Experimenter's Board:
• CC1100EMK/CC1101EMK – Sub-1-GHz radio
• CC2500EMK – 2.4-GHz radio
• CC2420EMK/CC2430EMK – 2.4-GHz 802.15.4 [SoC] radio
• CC2520EMK/CC2530EMK – 2.4-GHz 802.15.4 [SoC] radio
• CC2520 + CC2591 EM (if R4 and R8 0-Ω resistors are connected)
NOTE: Future evaluation boards may also be compatible with the header connections.
4.4.4
eZ430-RF2500T Interface
The eZ430-RF2500T module can be attached to the MSP-EXP430F5529 Experimenter's Board in one of
two ways – through an 18-pin connector (J12 – eZ RF) or a 6-pin connector (J13 – eZ RF Target). The
pins on the eZ430-RF2500T headers are multiplexed with the pins on the CC-EM headers, which allows
the EZ430-RF2500T module to behave identically to a CC-EM daughterboard. Power must be provided to
the EZ430-RF2500T module by setting the jumper RF PWR (JP14). The eZ430-RF2500T connection
should always be made with the antenna facing off of the board. For more information on the connections
to the required eZ430-RF2500T, see the eZ430-RF2500 Development Tool User's Guide, available
through www.ti.com/ez430.

3-Axis Accelerometer
The MSP-EXP430F5529 Experimenter's Board includes a VTI digital 3-axis accelerometer (part number
CMA3000-D01). The accelerometer supports SPI communication and outputs data for each X, Y and Z
axis. The accelerometer is powered through pin P3.6. This interface, especially in conjunction with other
on-board interfaces such as the LCD, enables several potential applications such as USB mouse
movement emulation and tilt sensing. The example software used the accelerometer for the Tilt Puzzle,
Demo Cube, and USB Mouse. For more information on the accelerometer chip, see the manufacturer's
data sheet (http://www.vti.fi).
4.4.6
Pin Access Headers
The MSP-EXP430F5529 Experimenter's Boards includes three headers (J4, J5, and J12) that can be
used as additional connections to external hardware or for signal analysis during firmware development.
All pins except the GND pin are internally selectable as either general purpose input/output pins or as
described in the device datasheet.

Frequently Asked Questions, References, and Schematics
5.1
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Which devices can be programmed with the Experimenter's Board?
The MSP-EXP430F5529 board is designed specifically to demonstrate the MSP430F5529.
2. The MSP430F5529 is no longer accessible through JTAG. Is something wrong with the device?
Verify that the jumpers are configured correctly. See Section 4 for jumper configuration.
Verify that the target device is powered properly.
If the target is powered locally, verify that the supplied VCC is sufficient to power the board. Check the
device data sheet for the specification.
3. I did every step in the previous question but still could not use or communicate with the device.
Improper programming of the device could lead to a JTAG total lockup condition. The cause of this
problem might be an incorrect device selection when creating a new project in CCS (select
MSP430F5529) or programming the device without a stable power source (low battery, switching the
Power Selector while programming, or absence of the MSP430 power jumper JP6 during
programming).
To solve this, completely reset the device. First unplug all power sources and connections (JTAG and
USB cables). Set the Power Selector Switch to FET mode. Use a jumper cable to briefly short one of
the GND test points with the 430 PWR test point. The device should now be released from the lockup
state.
4. Does the Experimenter board protect against blowing the JTAG fuse of the target device?
No. Fuse blow capability is inherent to all flash-based MSP430 devices to protect user's intellectual
property. Care must be taken to avoid the enabling of the fuse blow option during programming,
because blowing the fuse would prevent further access to the MSP430 device through JTAG.
5. I am measuring system current in the range of 30 mA, is this normal?
The LCD and the LCD backlight require a large amount of current (approximately 20 mA to 25 mA) to
operate. This results in a total system current consumption in the range of 30 mA. If the LCD backlight
is on, 30 mA is considered normal.
To ensure the board is OK, disable the LCD and the LCD backlight and measure the current again.
The entire board current consumption should not exceed 10 mA at this state. Note that the current
consumption of the board could vary greatly depending on the optimization of the board configurations
and the applications.
The expected current consumption for the MSP430F5529 in standby mode (LPM3), for example, is
approximately 2 μA. Operating at 1 MHz, the total current consumption should not exceed
approximately 280 μA.
6. I have trouble reading the LCD clearly. Why is the LCD contrast setting so low?
The LCD contrast is highly dependent on the voltage of the system. Changing power source from USB
(3.3 V) to batteries (approximately 3 V) could drastically reduce the contrast. Fortunately, the LCD
driver supports adjustable contrast. The specific instruction can be found in the LCD user's guide. The
MSP-EXP430F5529 software also provides the function to adjust the contrast using the wheel (see
Section 2.8).
7. When I run the example code, nothing happens on the LCD.
Verify that all jumpers are installed correctly and the 14-pin JTAG cable are properly connected.

Texas Instruments Incorporated (‘TI”) technical, application or other design advice, services or information, including, but not limited to,
reference designs and materials relating to evaluation modules, (collectively, “TI Resources”) are intended to assist designers who are
developing applications that incorporate TI products; by downloading, accessing or using any particular TI Resource in any way, you
(individually or, if you are acting on behalf of a company, your company) agree to use it solely for this purpose and subject to the terms of
this Notice.
TI’s provision of TI Resources does not expand or otherwise alter TI’s applicable published warranties or warranty disclaimers for TI
products, and no additional obligations or liabilities arise from TI providing such TI Resources. TI reserves the right to make corrections,
enhancements, improvements and other changes to its TI Resources.
You understand and agree that you remain responsible for using your independent analysis, evaluation and judgment in designing your
applications and that you have full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety of your applications and compliance of your applications

represent that, with respect to your applications, you have all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that (1)
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, (2) monitor failures and their consequences, and (3) lessen the likelihood of failures that
might cause harm and take appropriate actions. You agree that prior to using or distributing any applications that include TI products, you
will thoroughly test such applications and the functionality of such TI products as used in such applications. TI has not conducted any
testing other than that specifically described in the published documentation for a particular TI Resource.
You are authorized to use, copy and modify any individual TI Resource only in connection with the development of applications that include

ANY OTHER TI INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT, AND NO LICENSE TO ANY TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHT OF TI OR ANY THIRD PARTY IS GRANTED HEREIN, including but not limited to any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
regarding or referencing third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services, or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of TI Resources may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.

PROPERTY RIGHTS.
TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY YOU AGAINST ANY CLAIM, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO ANY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON ANY COMBINATION OF PRODUCTS EVEN IF
DESCRIBED IN TI RESOURCES OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL, DIRECT, SPECIAL,
COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH OR
ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
