Overview
The Digilent
PmodBB
is handy prototyping platform that can plug directly into a Pmod header on your system
board. It has a 14×19 wire wrap surface as well as a 170 tie point solderless breadboard that can be snugly placed
on top of the perfboard.

Functional Description
The PmodBB is able to act as an intermediary module between the system board and external circuitry. This is
useful if you need a small area to add a filter to process the incoming signals or a visual indicator showing the
status or strength of the signals.

Interfacing with the Pmod
The PmodBB is connected to the system board so that all of pins are pass through. Any specific protocol would be
dependent on the circuitry placed on the module. The two jumper blocks, JP1 and JP2, tie the positive power and
ground lines of both ends of the module together, respectively. Headers J2 and J3 are directly tied to the Pmod
headers J1 and J4, respectively, for easy prototyping access.
