ZC706 and PMOD Interface

[cmmiller]

Hi,

I am using a Xilinx ZC706 development board and I would like to connect pmod modules to it.  However, the ZC706 development board has dual row header pins for the pmod interface and it seems that all of the pmod modules have header pins for the interface too.  What is the best way to interface the pmod modules with header pins to the ZC706 dev board that has header pins for the pmod interface too? 

Thanks!

So, I think what you mean is that you have two male PMod connectors and they ... just don't work together.

Take a look at Digilent's "Accessories" "Connectors and Cables" page.  There you can find a PMod cable kit that has two female connectors.  Depending on what you need, a 1x6 pin connector may work, or you may need the 2x6 connector.  Be aware of Digilent's shipping prices, however--they are outrageous when it comes to simple cables.  (Digikey usually has cheaper shipping for cables ...)

Yours,

Dan

Here's a picture for those not familiar with the ZC706 board,

 

The male 2x6 PMod connector can be seen on the far right, but in the middle of the board vertically.
