So, you want to create a BoosterPack for the Launchpad. Sweet, lets get you jump started. First make sure to grab the BlackstoneEngineering eagle library (it has the headers done so you can just drop them into your project). Next let me point you to some handy resources buried within the TI Wiki. BoosterPack Design
As part of the ongoing struggle to make PCB design easier I have created a github repository for Eagle projects related to class. Bundled in the library are headers for the Launchpads, outlines, and other handy shortcuts that make creating BoosterPacks easier. Go! https://github.com/BlackstoneEngineering/eagle Things included: -Launchpad Headers spaced and labeled correctly (EM and
It is inevitable that at some point you will want to create your own PCB. This usually comes about either because you are frustrated with existing hardware and want something better, or because you have some special design that cant be made with readily available parts. Either way creating your own PCB is the end
When you want to create a PCB every device will need a symbol and a package layout. You could create a new one for every part you need, or you could use existing part libraries developed by people with far more skill who’ve been doing this for quite a good bit longer and save yourself
