Support for GoodFET50

Open ghost opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

I have build a GoodFET50 as described here http://goodfet.sourceforge.net/hardware/goodfet50/ but the support for it is missing. "Working software should be ready by early October 2011." maybe the page should be updated! I have also a TI Launchpad 5529, so we can build a GoodFET with only 12$. 50$ from adafruit is too much.

While a partial port won't be too much trouble, a full port will be quite an undertaking, as many of the rarely used modules have only been tested on the MSP430.

Perhaps Dan Hirsch could be dragged back into this project to do the port?

I have done a first port (https://github.com/etmatrix/goodfet/commit/dfae4d4add5acdb361960a853f76ae070c1a447c) for MSP430F5529 which is the microcontroller used in TI Launchpad (msp-exp430f5529lp). It's not perfetct because I have some issue with write flash block in app JTAG430. I have no tested other applications, because my target is programming of MSP430F2370 which has only jtag and not swb. So now I can program the uC word for word (slow but works). I hope a day to improve it and submit to master repository. Thank you for your project.

Excellent! I thought this port was lost.

Could you clean up the patch into a pull request?

Cheers from New York, --Travis

This project is mostly retired. @mossmann is rebooting it around more powerful, modern chips as the GreatFET.
