The MSP-FET is a powerful flash emulation tool to quickly begin application development on MSP430 microcontrollers. It includes a USB interface to program and debug the MSP430 in system through the JTAG interface or the pin saving Spy-Bi-Wire (2 wire JTAG) protocol. The enclosed MSP-FET development tool supports development with all MSP430 devices and is designed for use in conjunction with PCBs that contain MSP430 devices, such as MSP430 target socket boards.
Software configurable supply voltage between 1.8V and 3.6V at 100mA
Supports JTAG security fuse blow to protect code
Supports all MSP430 boards with JTAG header
USB debugging interface for connecting MSP430 MCU to a PC for real time, ISP and debugging
Enables EnergyTrace technology for energy measurement and debugging on all MSP430 devices
Up to 4x faster read/write speeds than the previous FET programmer version (MSP-FET430UIF)
Includes backchannel UART for bidirectional communication between the MSP430 and a PC
