Request for FRDM-MCXW72 Allegro ASCII (.alg) design files for Altium import

Hi NXP Team and Community,

I am currently working on a design based on the FRDM-MCXW72 development board. I have downloaded the design files (Design Resources ZIP), but I see the layout file is in binary Cadence Allegro format (.brd).

Since I use Altium Designer, I am unable to import the binary .brd file directly.

Could you please provide the layout in Allegro ASCII (.alg) format? Alternatively, an ODB++ export would also work perfectly. This would allow me to import the reference design correctly and accelerate my development process.

Thank you for your support!

Best regards,

Jinhao

Hello, hope you are doing well.

The design files we provide are only available in .brd format.

If a customer wishes to convert these files into a different format, each customer would need to handle the conversion on their own. I apologize for the inconveniences, but this is the only format that is available.

Would the Gerber files be helpful for you? These are located in the FRDM-MCXW72\Gerbers directory of the MCX W72 Design Files. If you'd like to review the layout, you could use the Altium viewer.

Best regards,
Ana Sofia.
