First apologies in advance if I'm posting to the wrong place as I couldn't find any "post to" for ST evaluation boards, so I'm posting to the SRM32U5 board as that is the CPU that is on the board.
We recently received two STWIN.box boards which was recommended for our project as a good starting board to start developing our project that has a combination of MCU, multiple sensors and stepper controllers.
While the board has a good set of on-board sensors, we also need to connect stepper controllers (up to 4), time of flight sensors (up to 4) plus an additional IMU (6DoF) and Magnetometer that attaches to a movable gimbal via wires/cables.
In looking at the schematic, there is a 34 pin connector CN1 that uses a FPC cable that has I2C, SPI and GPIOs but that tiny connector and cable isn't usable in prototyping environment without spinning and building a board for it.
I've looked all over the ST site but was unable to find anything like an FPC to 0.1" pitch breakout board for connecting the main board in a prototype environment which is what I'd like to have. So far, I've found individual sensor boards and it has an adapter for a dual inline 24 pin board, but single external sensors won't help my project.
Does ST of any 3rd party sell a 34 pin SFP cable breakout board?
Thanks,
Alan
