Overview
The MSP debug stack (MSPDS) for all MSP430 devices is called MSP430.DLL. It consists of a dynamic link library as well as embedded firmware that runs on the MSP-FET430UIF or the eZ430 emulators. It is the bridging element between all PC software and all MSP430 microcontroller derivatives and handles tasks such as code download, stepping through code, break point handling and so forth. Examples that use the DLLv3 are IDEs such as Code Composer Studio (CCS), IAR's Embedded Workbench or others. Also other TI tools like Smart RF Studio or Elprotronic's FlashPro430 are using the MSP430.DLL.
The MSP debug stack is officially supporting the following Operating Systems:
- Windows XP SP3, 32- and 64-bit
- Windows Vista, 32- and 64-bit
- Windows 7, 32- and 64-bit
- Windows 8, 32- and 64-bit
- Linux Ubuntu 10.04
- Linux Suse 10.3
What's new in the MSP430.DLLv3
We're glad to announce that we've released MSP430.DLLv3 end of 2011! It is an all new version of the previous MSP430.DLLv2, which has been used in all tools until October 2011. The DLLv3 was created from scratch and was written in an object oriented way, which allows for simpler modifications.
Furthermore, we're introducing a new USB protocol (CDC) for the MSP-FET430UIF debuggers, which will improve stability significantly and doesn't require any drivers except for an .inf file.
One of the most important aspects of the MSP430.DLLv3 is that it is available as open source software. See the MSPDS Open Source DLL package.
The DLLv3 supports all features of the previous DLLv2 (see release notes for limitations). In addition it features:
- Open source package
- Host OS independent design
- Linux support (Open Source Release available - see below and in CCSv5.2 and newer)
- Faster operation, especially when stepping through code
- Improved stability - CDC driver for the MSP-FET430UIF debugger
- Improved usability
- Extended LPMx.5 support
Backward compatibility:The new MSP430.DLLv3 provides full backward compatibility once the MSP-FET430UIF debugger has been updated and the CDC driver has been installed on the target system. The automated update from MSP430.DLLv2 to MSP430.DLLv3 for the MSP-FET430UIF debuggers is a new feature however, and not compatible with previous IDE releases.
IMPORTANT NOTE |
---|
The DLLv3 requires a significant firmware-update of the MSP-FET430UIF debugger. This update is different from the usual DLLv2 update, as the USB protocol stack will be updated as well. Once an update was done, the updated MSP-FET430UIF debugger won't work with older IDE or other MSP430.DLL based software anymore, unless a downgrade will be performed. For details see MSPDS Debugger Up- and Downgrade. |
IMPORTANT NOTE |
---|
Do not unplug the JTAG cable during an active debug session! This might cause unknown device behavior! |
Downloads
There are numerous ways of obtaining the MSP430.DLL.
- If you intend to program your MSP430 device out of an IDE, simply download the latest CCS or IAR Embedded Workbench release. The latest MSP430.dll will be included.
- Download the MSP430 Flasher to be able to access the basic functionality of the MSP430.DLL on the command line.
- Download the DLL Developers Package if you plan to create your own project based on the MSP430.DLL.
- Download the MSP430.DLL open source package to take a look at the low-level functionality (includes the MSP-FET430UIF firmware!)
IDEs
Each new IDE release with support for new MSP430 derivatives will include the latest version of the MSP430.DLL. The first IDE versions that contain the new MSP430.DLLv3 are:

Low-Level USB CDC or VCP Drivers
These drivers provide an interface between the high-level debugger drivers (MSP430.DLL & HIL.DLL) and the MSP-FET430UIF's USB interface. This is accomplished by using a Communication Device Class (CDC) or Virtual COM Port (VCP) protocol.Please note that all necessary low-level drivers are included in each IDE release (Code Composer Studio & IAR Embedded Workbench) and get installed automatically. Download these drivers only if you are solely using the Open Source DLL or the MSP430 Flasher.
Windows
Please use our new and easy-to-use stand-alone driver package. It does not only include the CDC drivers for the latest MSP Debug Stack releases but also legacy VCP drivers for DLLv2 support.
Supported operating systems: WinXP-32/64, WinVista-32/64, Win7-32/64, Win8-32/64
Download driver package - these drivers are Microsoft WHQL certified.
The USB CDC drivers to use the back-channel UART on the LaunchPad or on the eZ430 Emulator can be downloaded and installed from this link: Download
Linux: Native CDC support - no driver installation required - Download installation script to set the required udev rules

# | Symptoms | Treatment |
1 | DLLv3.3.1.3 only supports MSP430F5259, but none of the other F525x spins. | No workaround, we're about to provide a new release with a fix for this issue. |
2 | A FET firmware update from older DLL versions (up to v3.2.3.15) to v3.2.4.5 and newer versions might not be completed correctly. In this case, the IDE/programmer software won't respond anymore. | The IDE/programmer software will have to be closed and restarted. Additionally, the FET has to be unplugged and reconnected again. |
3 | Can't launch debug session for MSP430F67xx devices when using 4-wire JTAG mode. | Make sure that device is not in LPMx.5 when launching a debug session or use 2-wire SBW mode. |
4 | Error message 'Can't set Vcc' occurs upon debug session launch with DLLv3.3.0.6. | Known issue that's under investigation. Workaround: Unplug/reconnect debug interface and launch debug session again. This issue has been fixed in DLLv3.3.1.3 and newer versions. |
5 | Can't set breakpoints while device is running (FR59xx series) with DLLv3.3.0.6. | This feature is not yet supported but will be for the next release. This issue has been fixed in DLLv3.3.1.3 and newer versions. |
6 | Can only access F2xx master devices (e.g. MSP430F2274 works, but not the F2272) with eZ-FET based emulators. | This bug will be fixed with the next release. This issue has been fixed in DLLv3.3.1.3 and newer versions. |

Noice for the msp430 is available for download from development of this program was funded by imagecraft, and the registered version may only be purchased from them. In this protocol only two connections are used instead of the usual four pins for the general jtag interface. These drivers and debug the msp debug stack version 3. And a third part to maintain the msp-fet430uif ti usb fet hardware and firmware. My customer tries to work with the ccs 6.1.0 under windows 10 and got a message that system can't install the driver and now the device marked as unknown and doesn't work. If there is more than one fet430uif plugged in, the msp430 dll will pick one of them, but it's not guaranteed to pick the one with the numerically lowest com port assigned.
