MSP430 Debugger

Warning

General

The Lauterbach TRACE32 debugger for MSP430 is a on-chip debugging tool (OCD). It uses the
debug function implemented in the target CPU.

Available debug interfaces are the 4-wire JTAG interface or the Spy-Bi-Wire interface.

The debugging support does also include CC430 devices.

Target Design Requirements

Locate the debug connector as close as possible to the processor to minimize the capacitive
influence and cross coupling of noise onto the signals.

Reduce the cable length between CPU and Lauterbach connector to a minimum. Best results will
be provided, if a adequate connector will be foreseen directly on the target board.

The TEST pin of the MSP430 must be connected to the debugger if available. See Debug
Connection (debugger_msp430.pdf) on page 29 for connection information.

Limitations

The debugger offers no target power supply.

Locking the JTAG interface is currently not supported.

Multicore debugging is currently not supported. Please contact technical support if you intend to
debug multicore setups.

Quick Start
Starting up the debugger is done by the following steps:
1.

Select the device prompt B: for the TRACE32 ICD-Debugger, if the device prompt is not active
after starting the TRACE32 software.
b::

The device prompt B:: is normally already selected in the command line. If this is not the case enter
B: to set the correct device prompt. A RESet command is useful if you do not start directly after
booting the TRACE32 development tool.
2.

Select the CPU derivative to load the specific settings.

SYStem.CPU <cputype>

The default value for SYStem.CPU is MSP430, which is a derivative that does not exist. You should
always select an appropriate device. Otherwise the debug connection to the target might fail. The
default values of all other SYStem options are set in such a way that it should be possible to work
without modification. Please consider that this is probably not the best configuration for your target.
3.

Enter debug mode.

SYStem.Mode Up

4.

Declare size and type of FLASH memory is recommended doing via script.
DO ~~/demo/msp430/flash/msp430f*.cmm

Select the adequate PRACTICE script for the connected target. It will setup the flash memory to allow
writing and setting of software-breakpoints. A number of demo *.cmm scripts for flash progamming is
included in your MSP430 installation demo directory.
You can load a program into flash (if this was not already done by the demo script) as follows:
5.

Load the program.

Data.LOAD.auto ~~/demo/hardware/msp_exp430fg5438/sieve.d43

This example loads a sieve demo for the MSP430F5438 evaluation board. Data.Load.AUTO detects
automatically the correct format. Refer to Supported Compilers to see if your compiler is supported
or not. The option auto is not mandatory an could be left aside. Loading an application to flash
memory is only possible if the flash is declared correctly and unlocked. Please refer to the flash demo
scripts if you need an example for this.
A detailed description of the Data.LOAD command and all available options is given in theGeneral
Reference Guide.

Troubleshooting

Communication between Debugger and Processor can not be established

Typically the SYStem.Up command is the first command of a debug session where communication with the
target is required. If you receive error messages like debug port fail or debug port time out while executing
this command this may have the reasons below. target processor in reset is just a follow-up error message.
Open the AREA window to see all error messages.

The target has no power or the debug cable is not connected to the target. This results in the
error message target power fail.

The target is in an unrecoverable state. Re-power your target and try again.

The default debug clock speed is too fast, especially if the target is connected to the debugger by
a long cable. Reduce the communication speed with SYStem.JtagClock command and optimize
the speed when you got it working.

The CPU has no clock.

The CPU is kept in reset.

Although the debugger takes care of the watchdog you should check if there is a watchdog which
needs to be deactivated.

The target is in low power mode and the JTAG interface is not available.

The target is protected via JTAG fuse / password. In this case it is not possible to establish a
JTAG connection.

In case youve selected Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) to connect to the target, check if there are capacities
connected to the reset line. In SBW mode the MSP430 shares the data line with the reset line.
Any capacities/loads might act as low-pass that reduces your possible clock speed.

The core is in LPMx.5 (Low power mode with JTAG turned off). The core could not be recovered
via JTAG. Try to connect to your core using the Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) interface.

Troubleshooting

FAQ

Debugging via
VPN

The debugger is accessed via Internet/VPN and the performance is very

slow. What can be done to improve debug performance?
The main cause for bad debug performance via Internet or VPN are low data
throughput and high latency. The ways to improve performance by the debugger
are limited:

in practice scripts, use "SCREEN.OFF" at the beginning of the script and

"SCREEN.ON" at the end. "SCREEN.OFF" will turn off screen updates.
Please note that if your program stops (e.g. on error) without executing
"SCREEN.OFF", some windows will not be updated.

"SYStem.POLLING SLOW" will set a lower frequency for target state

checks (e.g. power, reset, jtag state). It will take longer for the debugger to
recognize that the core stopped on a breakpoint.

"SETUP.URATE 1.s" will set the default update frequency of Data.List/

Data.dump/Variable windows to 1 second (the slowest possible setting).

prevent unneeded memory accesses using "MAP.UPDATEONCE

[address-range]" for RAM and "MAP.CONST [address--range]" for ROM/
FLASH. Address ranged with "MAP.UPDATEONCE" will read the specified
address range only once after the core stopped at a breakpoint or manual
break. "MAP.CONST" will read the specified address range only once per
SYStem.Mode command (e.g. SYStem.Up).

FAQ

Setting a
Software
Breakpoint fails

What can be the reasons why setting a software breakpoint fails?

Setting a software breakpoint can fail when the target HW is not able to
implement the wanted breakpoint.
Possible reasons:

The wanted breakpoint needs special features that are only possible to
realize by the trigger unit inside the controller.
Example: Read, write and access (Read/Write) breakpoints ("type" in Break.Set
window). Breakpoints with checking in real-time for data-values ("Data").
Breakpoints with special features ("action") like TriggerTrace, TraceEnable,
TraceOn/TraceOFF.
TRACE32 can not change the memory.
Example: ROM and Flash when no preparation with FLASH.Create,
FLASH.TARGET and FLASH.AUTO was made. All type of memory if the
memory device is missing the necessary control signals like WriteEnable or
settings of registers and SpecialFunctionRegisters (SFR).
Contrary settings in TRACE32.
Like: MAP.BOnchip for this memory range. Break.SELect.<breakpoint-type>
Onchip (HARD is only available for ICE and FIRE).
RTOS and MMU:
If the memory can be changed by Data.Set but the breakpoint doesn't work it
might be a problem of using an MMU on target when setting the breakpoint to a
symbolic address that is different than the writable and intended memory
location.

FAQ

MSP430 Specific Implementations

Breakpoints
Two types of breakpoints are available for MSP430 architecture: Software breakpoints (SW-BP) and on-chip
breakpoints (HW-BP).

Software Breakpoints
Software breakpoints are the default breakpoints. To set a software breakpoint, before resuming the CPU,
the debugger replaces the instruction at the breakpoint address with a breakpoint code instruction. SW-BPs
can be used in RAM areas and in FLASH areas if FLASH.AUTO is set properly.
There is no restriction in the number of software breakpoints. But it must be considered that by setting
software breakpoints in flash the flash memory will be changed. Consequently the use of software
breakpoints in flash will reduce the number of program/erase cycles that are left for the flash.
Please note that software breakpoints consume one on-chip breakpoint resource if one or more software
breakpoints are set. This must be taken into account when combining on-chip and software breakpoints.

On-chip Breakpoints
If on-chip breakpoints are set the debugger will configure the integrated debug hardware of the MSP430 for
this purpose. Current available MSP430 devices allow to set 2 to 8 on-chip breakpoints (device dependent).
Breakpoints that are set on code in read only memory must be on-chip breakpoints. With the command
MAP.BOnchip <range> it is possible to declare memory address ranges for use with on-chip breakpoints to
the debugger. The number of onchip breakpoints to be set depends on the complexity of the desired
breakpoint. Complex breakpoints consume more hardware resources than simple ones. Onchip breakpoints
take effect before execution.
The Lauterbach MSP430 debugger allows to use a powerful variety of breakpoints. Available breakpoint
types are also device dependent. It is possible to use the following breakpoints:

Program/Instruction Breakpoints: Break on instruction fetch, either on single address or

address range

Data Breakpoints: Break on data read and/or write on a single address or address range

Memory Breakpoints: Break when a certain program part does a read/write access to a certain
address range.

Register Breakpoint: Break when a certain register is written (if available)

All range breakpoints might be used with the exclude option

You can check your breakpoint setup with the command Break.List.
If no more on-chip breakpoints are available you will get an error message on trying to set a new on-chip
breakpoint. Delete other breakpoints to regain debug resources.

MSP430 Specific Implementations

Breakpoints on Data Addresses and Data Values

Breakpoints on data addresses are bound to several conditions:
1.

The entity doing the data access (read and/or write) must be the CPU. Any other accesses from
on-chip or off-chip peripherals (DMA etc.) will not be recognized by the data address breakpoints.
If you would like to trigger on other sources, like the DMA, contact technical support.

2.

The data being targeted must be qualified by an address in memory. It is not possible to target
registers (GPRs), peripherals etc.

3.

Per default the break will be done independently of the value (empty DATA field of Break.Set
window).

Breakpoints on Registers
Only a break on a register write action is supported by the MSP430 hardware. Register breakpoints are
not available for all MSP430. Limitations:
1.

Only write actions on registers can be triggered. Other breakpoint options for this type like read
or read/write would cause an error.

2.

When the pc is changed after an instruction execution this will not trigger a break action.

3.

Changes to SR (status register) might not always trigger a break action.

4.

A register breakpoint is automatically combined with a range breakpoint since most variables
mapped to registers are only valid in a certain address range.

Breakpoints on Interrupts
MSP430 devices do not offer a special mechanism to halt the device on an interrupt event. However, you
can set a data read/write breakpoint on the interrupt vector table. Once an interrupt is triggered the cpu will
fetch the address of the interrupt handler from the interrupt vector table. This operation will trigger the read/
write breakpoint and therefore halt the cpu on an interrupt event.
Please refer to your MSP430 specific device documentation for more information on MSP430 interrupts.

be part of the Lauterbach sieve demo. sieve\7 is the address where the variable is accessed
within the function.
Var.Break.Set sieve\7 /VarWrite
\main\sieve\i

; register breakpoint on
variable i in sieve demo

Cycle Counter
The Cycle Counter is used to evaluate the number of cycles certain actions take. This could be for example
measuring the number of instruction fetches that occurred.
There is currently no support implemented. Request a software update.

Runtime Measurement
The command RunTime allows run time measurements based on polling the CPU run status by software.
Therefore the result will be about few milliseconds higher than the real value.
The measured value depends on the set JtagClock for the debugger polls the cpu. A higher clock means
faster communication with the target an thus a more accurate measurement.

MSP430 Specific Implementations

Memory Classes
Though the MSP430 has a linear memory space, the following specific memory classes are available:
Memory Class

Description

Program Memory

Data Memory

VM

Virtual Memory (memory on the debug system)

Emulation Memory, Pseudo Dual port Access to Memory.

To access a memory class write the class in front of the address. Prepending an E as attribute to the
memory class will make memory accesses possible, even when the target CPU is running. Such an access
must be allowed: See SYStem.MemAccess and SYStem.CpuAccess for more information. Example:
Data.dump E:0x200

; View data while CPU is running

Data.dump D:0x200

; View data memory

Data.dump VM:0x200

; Virtual memory, no target access

Note: Since the address space of the MSP430 is linear and non-overlapping memory class D and P are not
distinguished memory classes and can be left aside.
Note: The MSP430 does not allow to read/write memory during run time. This means that a memory access
using the access class E: is intrusive, i.e. the CPU is continuously stopped and restarted.

State Storage
The State Storage of the MSP430 allows to records the last eight address bus, data bus and status register
values, dependant on the trigger that triggers the state storage.
There is currently no support implemented. Request a software update.

Trigger Sequencer
The trigger sequencer can be used to trigger an action under the condition that a certain programmed
sequence happened.
There is currently no support implemented. Request a software update.

In order to perform a memory read or write while the CPU is executing

the program the debugger stops the program execution shortly.
Each short stop takes 1 100 ms depending on the speed of the CPU

Denied

No intrusive memory access is possible while the CPU executes the

program.

Nonstop

Nonstop ensures that the program execution can not be stopped and that
the debugger does not affect the real-time behavior of the CPU.
The debugger inhibits the following:

to stop the program execution

all features of the debugger that are intrusive (e.g. spot breakpoints, performance analysis via Stop-and-go, conditional breakpoints etc.)

NOTE:

Non-intrusive memory access during runtime is not possible for the MSP430. Use
the Enable option to declare if an intrusive memory access can take place while the

SYStem.JtagClock

Format:

Set jtag clock frequency

SYStem.JtagClock <frequency>

Selects the JTAG port frequency (TCK) used by the debugger to communicate with the processor. This
influences e.g. the download speed. It could be useful to reduce the JTAG frequency if there are buffers,
additional loads or high capacities on the JTAG lines or if VTREF is very low. A very high frequency will not
work on all systems and will result in an erroneous data transfer.
The debugger cannot select all frequencies accurately. It chooses the next possible frequency and displays
the real value in the System Settings window.
A decimal number like 100000. also short forms like 100kHz or 15MHz can be used for <frequency>.
The short forms implies a decimal value, although no . is used.

SYStem.LOCK

Format:

Lock and tristate the debug port

SYStem.LOCK [ON | OFF]

Default: OFF.
If the system is locked, no access to the debug port will be performed by the debugger. While locked, the
debug connector of the debugger is tristated. The main intention of the lock command is to give debug
access to another tool.

software breakpoints while the CPU is executing the program. This is only possible for the instruction set
simulator.
CPU

A run-time memory access is made without CPU intervention while the

program is running (Only Simulator).

Denied

No memory access is possible while the CPU is executing the program.

If a specific window that displays memory or variables should be updated while the program is running select
the memory class E: or the format option %E.
Data.dump E:0x200

; Non-Intrusive Data.dump at specific location

Data.List E:

; Non-Intrusive Data.List at program counter

General SYStem Commands

SYStem.Mode

Establish the communication with the target

Format:

SYStem.Mode <mode>

<mode>:

Down | NoDebug | Go | Attach | Up

Select target reset mode. (Go to figure.)

Down

Disables the debugger (default).

The state of the CPU remains unchanged. The JTAG/SBW port is
tristated.

NoDebug

Disables the debugger.

The state of the CPU remains unchanged. The JTAG/SBW port is
tristated.

Go

Resets the target and enables the debugger and start the program
execution.
Program execution can be stopped by the break command or external
trigger.

Up

Resets the target and sets the CPU to debug mode.

After execution of this command the CPU is stopped and prepared for
debugging. All registers are set to the default level.

Attach

User program remains running and the debug mode is activated.

After this command the user program can be stopped with the break
command or if any break condition occurs.

StandBy

Not available for MSP430.

General SYStem Commands

SYStem.Option

Configure debugger behavior

System options allow to influence the behavior of the debugger.

SYStem.Option IMASKASM

Disable interrupts for assembler single steps

Format:

SYStem.Option IMASKASM <option>

<option>:

ON | OFF

Default: OFF
Disable interrupts while single stepping in assembler mode.

SYStem.Option IMASKHLL

Disable interrupts for HLL single steps

Format:

SYStem.Option IMASKHLL <option>

<option>:

ON | OFF

Default: OFF
Disables interrupts while single stepping in HLL mode. A HLL step might execute several lines of code.
Thus a target application might re-enable interrupts again during the step.

SYStem.Option LPMX5

Enable LPMx5 support

Format:

SYStem.Option LPMX5 <option>

<option>:

ON | OFF

Default: OFF
Per default the support of the LPM5 mode is disabled. If enabled, the debugger will check the LPMx.5 state
of a device. This takes additional time and will decrease the debug performance.

General SYStem Commands

Only available for MSP430F5xxx, MSP430F6xxx, MSP30FR5xxx, CC4305xxx, CC430F5xxx devices that
support the LPMx.5 mode.

SYStem.Option TURBO

Speed up memory access

Format:

SYStem.Option TURBO <option>

<option>:

ON | OFF

Default: OFF
If activated, additional error checks are avoided. This increases the read and write access to memory. Write
or read errors might not be detected.
Only available for MSP430F5xxx, MSP430F6xxx, MSP30FR5xxx, CC4305xxx, CC430F5xxx devices.

SYStem.Option TCKTOTEST

Configure clock output pins

Format:

SYStem.Option TCKTOTEST<option>

<option>:

NORMAL | BOTHTCK | BOTHTEST | SWAP

Select output pin for debug clock. This option applies only for a Spy-Bi-Wire connection. It makes no
sense to use this with 4-wire JTAG.
NORMAL

Clock is only output on TCK pin

BOTHTCK

Clock is output on TCK and TEST pin

BOTHTEST

Test is output on TCK and TEST pin

SWAP

Clock is only output on TEST pin

General SYStem Commands

MSP430 Specific TrOnchip Commands

The TrOnchip command provides low level access to the on-chip debug register.

TrOnchip.CONVert

Format:

Extend the breakpoint range

TrOnchip.CONVert [ON | OFF]

Default: ON.
The debug unit of some devices does not provide the resources to set an on-chip breakpoint to an address
range. Instead only bit masks can be used to mark a memory range with a breakpoint. A mask has a
reduced flexibility and cannot handle all ranges. It is therefore required to adapt the address range the user
has entered so that it fits to the debug unit capabilities.
If TrOnchip.Convert is set to ON (default) and a breakpoint is set to a range, this range is extended to the
next possible bit mask. The result is, that in most cases a bigger address range is marked by the specified
breakpoint. This can be easily controlled by the Data.View command.
If TrOnchip.Convert is set to OFF, the debugger will only accept breakpoints which exactly fit to the on-chip
breakpoint hardware.
This setting affects all on-chip breakpoints.

TrOnchip.RESet

Format:

Reset on-chip trigger settings

TrOnchip.RESet

Resets all TrOnchip settings.

TrOnchip.view

Format:

Display on-chip trigger window

TrOnchip.view

Open TrOnchip window.

MSP430 Specific TrOnchip Commands

Low Power Mode debugging

MSP430 devices offer different low power modes. Low Power modes are designed to save energy. This is
done by disabling certain clocks, the CPU itself and the JTAG connection. Which parts are deactivated
depends on the Low Power Mode and the device. Details can be found in the device specific data sheet.

Avoid loss of device

Devices that implement the LPMx.5 mode (i.e. LPM3.5 and/or LPM4.5) may disable JTAG in LPMx.5 mode.
In this case the debugger has no access to the device until the next wake-up which cannot be done by the
debugger. If the JTAG is kept alive during LPMx.5 the debugger may snoop the LPMx.5 state of the device
and wake the device into debug mode. Hence the debugger might not be able to recover a device that goes
to LPMx.5 shortly after the device went out from reset. This happens when JTAG is powered down to fast.
Development recommendation:

Add a wait time of 5 to 10 seconds in the LPMx.5 application before entering LPMx.5. The
debugger has then a chance to bring the device to debug mode before LPMx.5 is entered.

Check then if device can be recovered from LPMx.5. Remove wait time once the development of
the LPMx.5 application has finished or if the device can be recovered by the debugger.

Supported Low Power Modes

LPM0 - LPM4

All MSP430 derivatives
