Compatibility BOOSTXL-IOBKOUT with TM4C1294 Connected LaunchPad

Bedri Zija

Hello everyone!
Are BOOSTXL-IOBKOUT is compatible with TM4C1294 Connected LaunchPad?
Can I use two of these with TM4C1294 Connected LaunchPad?
As I can see they are compatible, but whether the dimensions correspond to two BoosterPack?

It appears to be compatible but you won't be able to fit two of them on the 129 LaunchPad at the same time.

Thank you Dexter .
Yeah you are right .But whether it is possible to cut one BoosterPack, or to perform overlap of both BoosterPacks?

Cutting PCBs is generally strongly discouraged.

Overlap maybe, for that you probably need to get them in hand and decide what you can tolerate.

The other alternative is to use the breadboard IO connector on the bottom of the board. http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CLP_Breadboard

Hi Bedri,

If you have not known yet, you can connect your Tiva Connected Launchpad on a breadboard like this below.

Hello, I know about the option with breadboard.
However specifically for my project suits me the option with screw terminal.
I will order one GPIO Breakout BoosterPack so will see how it responds.
And I will share the experience here.
Thank you guys.
