Sometimes connecting things requires a lot of cables because the component you need alone doesn't have the correct connector to mount on an evaluation board.   A few weeks ago, we needed to connect this display Adafruit 1.54" 240x240 Wide Angle TFT LCD Display to some FRDM boards. We started using cables but ended up making a small card to mount the board and plug it directly into the PMOD port of the FRDM board.   We decided to make it available in case you have the same problem 😊   Adafruit 1.54" 240x240 Wide Angle TFT LCD Display PMOD Adapter Gerber files for fabrication are here Final Assembly   3D render     This is how it looks connected to a FRDM-RW612 board  enjoy!    

The open source hardware community is please to offer ECAD schematic symbols for the new MCX A153 and MCX N947 microcontrollers.     The MCX A153 schematic library has the QFP32, QFN48 and LQFP64 variants. The MCX N947 schematic library has the BGA184 and LQFP100 variants. The symbols were generated using data from the MCUXpresso Pin Config tool to ensure accuracy. The pin names include all pin mux options to make it easy to see all available peripheral functions and further simplify the symbol for your own design purpose The symbol data is provided in the open source KiCad V7 format and is attached to this post. The symbols can be imported into commercial tools such as Altium Designer. Enjoy!
