Purchasing the Moo

[Yusung Kim]

Hello, 

I have an interest in Computational RFID systems, and plan to purchase two Moos.  

To update the firmware of the Moo,  "JTAG header" seems to be required.

Thus  I will purchase two Moos and one "JTAG header" together using the order form of the Moo.

I think that  "JTAG header" is attached to Moos,  and do I need another device such as "USB programmer" 

which makes a connection between  the "JTAG header"  and a computer (labtop) ?

I saw the picture of "USB programmer"  in the following link: https://spqr.eecs.umich.edu/moo/    

Thank you.

best regards,

You need a "JTAG programmer" and a computer that can connect to the JTAG programmer and can compile programs for the Moo.  In our lab, we use the limited version of IAR Embedded Workbench (http://www.iar.com/Products/IAR-Embedded-Workbench/) combined with this programmer, http://www.ti.com/tool/msp-fet430uif.

Note that the JTAG header (sold separately, by us) is needed to connect the Moo to the JTAG programmer and is only needed for loading firmware onto the Moo, debugging, and powering the Moo in the absence of a RFID reader (sold separately, but not by us).
