This wiring can be done either with jumper wires or by designing the board with a connector that plugs into
the isolation jumper block.

BoosterPack Plug-in Module Pinout
This LaunchPad development kit complies with the 40-pin LaunchPad development kit pinout standard.
This standard was created to aid compatibility between LaunchPad development kits and BoosterPack
plug-in modules across the TI ecosystem.
The 40-pin standard is compatible with the 20-pin standard that is used by other LaunchPad development
kit like the
. This allows some subset of functionality of 40-pin BoosterPack plug-in
modules to be used with 20-pin LaunchPad development kits.
While most BoosterPack plug-in modules are compliant with the standard, some are not. The MSP-
EXP430FR5994 LaunchPad development kit is compatible with all 40-pin BoosterPack plug-in module that
comply with the standard. If the reseller or owner of the BoosterPack plug-in module does not explicitly
indicate compatibility with the MSP-EXP430FR5994 LaunchPad development kit, compare the schematic
of the candidate BoosterPack plug-in module with the LaunchPad development kit to ensure compatibility.
Keep in mind that sometimes conflicts can be resolved by changing the MSP430FR5994 MCU pin
function configuration in software.
To check the compatibility of your desired BoosterPack plug-in module for your design, with a LaunchPad
development kit of your choice, you can use the
tool (see
). This allows
you to select any LaunchPad development kit we offer and determine its compatibility with any number of
BoosterPack plug-in module that we offer. You can also add your own BoosterPack plug-in module to
check its compatibility as you prototype that next design.
