2.7 Connectors
There are several types of connectors used in the MMWAVEICBOOST board, which are mentioned
below.
2.7.1 20-Pin LaunchPad and Booster Pack Connectors (J5, J6)
The MMWAVEICBOOST has the standard LaunchPad connectors (J5 and J6) that enable it to be directly
connected to all TI MCU LaunchPad's pinout, as shown in Figure 17. While connecting the
MMWAVEICBOOST to other LaunchPads, ensure the pin-1 orientation is correct by matching the 3V3 and
5-V signal marking on the boards. Figure 17 shows two 20-pin connectors.
Table 4 and Table 5 provide the connector pin information.

When running the OOB demo, the MSS_Logger pin is used to send data. This is the same pin connected to the XDS110 and
displayed through the emulator as a data COM port.
