Re: Wiring TI Launchpad

Rachel,
Thanks for quick and informative reply. It appeared to me that the BOOSTERXL should work but I could find no confirmation. Two follow up questions:

1) Given that the MSP and Boosterxl will be enclosed in the driver station, I'm not sure where your concerns about the robustness of the Boosterxl come from. It would seem to me the screw terminals would be adequate for DS application. Am I missing something?

2) Just to clarify, when you say ribbon cable "breakout", do you mean manually separating the conductors of the cable or is there some other way to do that?
