embedded - Is there a way to prevent code being read from an MSP430 without blowing the fuse?


I was recently involved at a project in a small company where we had fears of someone taking the code from the master chip, an MSP430F2419, and using it for a competing product. We ended up blowing the JTAG fuses for the first few beta releases, but because of the blown fuses we could not reprogram them. Is there a middle ground between blowing the JTAG fuse that will prevent someone from reusing the code on the chip, but let us reprogram the chip?

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
