Overview

The MSP430 Down Load Adapter "DLA" is an interface device that allows the direct

download of your code to the flash MSP430 Texas Instruments Microcontrollers using the

serial RS232C port of your computer. The MSP430-DLA is ideal for firmware development,

field upgrading and even small production runs.

The use of the in chip "bootstrap" loader is strongly recommended when you cannot share or

compromise I/O pins for the JTAG down load method and this becomes more restrictive for the

low pin count MSP430 devices. Using the MSP430 "bootstrap" requires the use of only two I/O

lines (that can be even shared with other hardware functions) and the TEST/VPP and RST/NMI

control lines.

The MSP430-DLA is directly compatible with EXPERTiS prototype adapters MSP430-PAD-x

so you can set up a very affordable hardware and firmware development tool. The MSP430-

DLA can be powered by your target system or an external power source or battery.

The MSP430-DLA is compatible with Texas Instruments "Serial downloader program" that is

provided free of charge

You can configure your production hardware with our standard 10-pin 0.1" header connector or

use a lower pin count connector of choice.
