TMS320F28379D: Creating a custom board with slot for the ControlCard

James Landis

Part Number: TMS320F28379D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE, C2000WARE

I am ordering the F28379D ControlCard Experimenter Kit, and would like to be able to create a custom board that I can later plug the ControlCard directly into. I searched for HSEC180 slots or adapters on Mouser, but I can't find any matches. Is there a combination of slots that can be fitted on a fabricated board to allow for this, or do I have to use the 180 to DIMM100 adapter and use the clips for those? Thanks!

James,

I just looked at the Docking station schematics and BOM and have pulled the part number for you. They are Samtec connectors.

HSEC8 180pin- (120 + 60) HSEC8 socket, Samtec:
HSEC8-130-01-L-DV-A
HSEC8-160-01-L-DV-A-BL

Thanks! I appreciate you taking time not just to answer, but showing me where to find the answer next time. I'm a recent grad, trying to learn the ropes as the only computer engineer in my lab, and this forum has been extremely helpful.

Glad to hear that you found the forums useful. A lot of board specific documentation is controlSUITE and the device level documentation can be found on the product pages. Good luck with your design. If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to create a new post!
