Hello, i have a strange behaviour here. I just have received three brand new boards based on MSP430F149. When i try to erase the boards with msp430-jtag this works always for one board but only seldom for the other two.
The difference between the boards are the MSPs revisions: the working one has the following stamp 31C93YT M430F149 the non working ones have the stamp: 46E673T M430F149 REV N The error message is: >msp430-jtag -e MSP430 parallel JTAG programmer Version: 1.3 Use -h for help Mass Erase... An error occoured: Could not erase the Flash Now i tried to increase the debug level and what i can see is that most of the time the verify of the downloaded funclets is failing. Sometimes the 'funclets: set PC' is failing.
