SLVUBO3A April 2019 – October 2020 TPS650330-Q1
Initial operation with the MSP430F5529 LaunchPad requires downloading pre-configured firmware into the MSP430 in order to be recognized by the GUI.
The GUI incorporates a tool to flash the MSP430F5529 LaunchPad, located under the File tab in the top menu. This tool is pre-configured to flash the MSP430F5529LP only, and cannot be used with other LaunchPads.
To flash the LaunchPad, first connect the MSP430F5529LP to the PC using a micro-USB cable, then select File > Program Device. The GUI will automatically download the firmware, recognize the LaunchPad, and flash the board.
Afterwards the LaunchPad will be recognized as the specific USB-to-I2C interface for operating with the TPS65032001-Q1 and TPS65033x-Q1 PMICs.
