4.1 Programming/Reprogramming the eZ430-Chronos Watch: Disassembly and
Assembly of the Housing
To program and debug code on the CC430, it needs to be connected to a PC with a JTAG interface. The
eZ430-Chronos kit includes the eZ430-RF JTAG interface for that purpose. It can only be connected to the
eZ430-Chronos watch, after the watch electronic module is removed from its housing. This chapter
describes how to remove the watch electronics from the housing and how to assemble it again.
NOTE: Videos with detailed instructions can be found on www.ti.com/chronos and the CD that is
included in the kits.
