Problems with using BSL to program MSP432P401R [Copy link]

Is the way to use BSL to burn programs for MSP432 the same as that for MSP430? Which programmers currently support BSL burning for MSP432, and what host computer software is used? What should be the hardware connection with the programmer?

Similarly, UART BSL pins: P1.2 - BSLRXD, P1.3 - BSLTXD SPI BSL pins: P1.4 - BSLSTE, P1.5 - BSLCLK, P1.6 - BSLSIMO, P1.7 - BSLSOMI I2C BSL pins: P3.6 - BSLSDA, P3.7 - BSLSCL As long as the corresponding timing is simulated, the BSL can be woken up for program update.

I just don't want to simulate its timing and implement its protocol by myself. When using MSP430, these are all done through the programmer and the corresponding host computer software. Is there a special programmer and host computer software for MSP432? Or can I use the programmer and host computer software of MSP430?

BSL is basically a host computer developed by ourselves. Just like MSP430, after BSL came out, many companies developed their own host computer GUI to upgrade the MCU program through the serial port. But if you don't have to use BSL for mass production, you can still down the program by burning SBW fuses. You can use the MSP430GANG tool BSL is only considered for product firmware upgrades.
