CW308T-MSP430FR5
Hardware Description
This target board is designed to experiment with the MSP430FR5969 (which has hardware AES), and MSP430FR5869 (without hardware AES). The same footprint can be used with both parts - the MSP430FR5869 has the advantage of being easier to export due to a lack of cryptographic modules present.
The device can be programmed with an external programmer using JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire, or from the ChipWhisperer software using the serial BSL (Bootstrap Loader). Using BSL requires an entry sequence that can be generated by ChipWhisperer-Capture hardware.
Build Environment
The examples are designed to be built with GCC for the MSP430 (msp430-elf-gcc). You can download a build of GCC from TI's website, although you may also have a build from another location. Downloading from TI will require registering & agreeing to some export control conditions. The following assumes you have installed this version of GCC.
If you want to use an external programmer, you can also download a Command-Line MSP430Flasher program.
Include File Location
Currently, the provided GCC does not seem to add the MSP430 header files as a default include location. Instead you must specify the location of these files in the Makefile - on Windows for example this defaults to C:\ti\msp430_gcc\include . You will see one of the first lines of the Makefile specifies this path:
INC_PATH = C:/ti/msp430_gcc/include/
Batch File for Building
When running make, you'll need to have the msp430-gcc files on your system path. Rather than modifying your path, you may wish to make a batch file with the path on it. For Windows you can call this file tigcc.bat, and for example the following shows including both GCC and the flasher program:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\ti\msp430_gcc\bin;C:\ti\MSPFlasher_1.3.10
cmd
Double-clicking on this file should give you a command prompt which now has tools like make and msp430-elf-gcc in the path:
