Application Notes

  • Secure In-Field Firmware Updates for MSP MCUs
    PDF, 223 Kb, File published: Nov 17, 2015
    In-field firmware update is a feature that is increasingly used in microcontroller-based applications today and important benefits include service and support to products that are already deployed in the field (for example, being able to correct bugs or add new functionalities). As common as in-field firmware updates are in embedded systems, this feature is also commonly exploited by attackers; if
  • Random Number Generation Using MSP430FR59xx and MSP430FR69xx Microcontrollers
    PDF, 113 Kb, File published: Jan 18, 2017
    Random number generation has a role in a variety of applications, such as cryptography and tamper detection.In digital systems, it becomes difficult to introduce the concept of true randomness as a machine executes code in the sequence it is programed. This introduces the notion of true random number generators (TRNGs) and pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs), also known as deterministic rando
  • Getting Started With EEMBC ULPBench on MSP-EXP430FR5969 (Rev. A)
    PDF, 381 Kb, Revision: A, File published: Jan 29, 2015
    This is a getting started guide for obtaining the ULPMarkв„ў-CP score using the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC) ULPBench and EnergyMonitor with the MSP430FR5969 microcontroller (MCU). This document uses the MSP-EXP430FR5969 LaunchPad development kit as the target evaluation module (EVM) for performing the benchmark.
  • Migrating From MSP430F4xx Family to MSP430FR58xx/FR59xx/FR68xx/FR69xx Family (Rev. B)
