2.3 BoosterPack Pinout Headers
The BOOSTXL-IOLINKM-8 BoosterPack requires both sets of BoosterPack XL connectors (J1/J3, J2/J4) and
(J5/J7, J6/J8), and uses most of the signals available from the LaunchPad for the application. The eight
standard IO-LINK Port 5-pin M12 connectors must be mounted in a manner that eliminates the ability to stack
another BoosterPack board on top of the BOOSTXL-IOLINKM-8 board. As a result, the standard BoosterPack
XL connectors, with both a socket portion on the bottom of the board and a pin portion on top of the board,
have been replaced with a surface mount socket header type that allows the BoosterPack to mate with the
LaunchPad, but removes the top side pins that conflict with the M12 connectors. The majority of these signals
have also been brought out to test points located on the perimeter of the Boosterpack to maintain access to
these signals during testing.
