MSP430 38-Pin Target Board, ZIF Socket

MSP-TS430DA38, MSP430 38-Pin Target Board, ZIF Socket

Texas Instruments MSP-TS430DA38 is a standalone ZIF socket target board used to program and debug the MSP430 in-system through the JTAG interface or the Spy Bi-Wire (2-wire JTAG) protocol. The development board supports some MSP430 Flash parts in a 38-pin TSSOP package (TI package code: DA).
A separate debugging and programming interface is required to work with the MSP-TS430DA38. A flash emulation tool (FET) may be purchased independently (MSP-FET430UIF) or bundled with the MSP-TS430DA38 (MSP-FET430U38).

MSP430 Microcontrollers, Texas Instruments

The MSP430 Platform is a range of mixed-signal, ultra-low power microcontrollers from Texas Instruments. The 16-bit RISC architecture is perfectly suited for wireless, low-power industrial and portable applications. This established range has a strong and popular position due to its ease of use and broad suite of development tools and support.
The MSP430 portfolio consists of over 400 devices ranging from the MSP430 Value Line to the revolutionary, highly integrated microcontrollers with embedded FRAM memory.This broad family of products offer integration suited to many designs and applications. High-performance peripherals include USB, RF, LCD controllers and Sigma-Delta ADCs. This allows designers to find the appropriate MSP430 device for many low power applications.
