FTHR-PMD-INTZ Hardware User Guide
Overview
The FTHR-PMD-INTZ is an add-on adapter board especially built for the MAXIM MCU boards. Maxim Feather Boards, namely the MAX32630FTHR, MAX32650FTHR, MAX32655FTHR, MAX32666FTHR, and MAX78000FTHR, are very small form factors called “feathers”, and they require special connectors to be used with other Pmod boards.
This interposer board provides such solution and allows interfacing with up to two Pmod boards via SPI or I2C interface. Furthermore, this add-on adapter board adheres to the standards, such as the Digilent Pmod™ Interface Specification and Adafruit Feather Specification.

Power Configuration
The circuit is powered by the voltage coming from the Maxim Feather headers.
Figure 3. Power Jumpers
The table below lists the power configuration for this interposer board. The default voltage configuration for all is 3V3.
| Part | Description | Left Connection | Right Connection |
| P2 | Feather Voltage Selector | 3V3 | 1V8 |
| P4 | I2C PMOD Voltage Selector | 3V3 | VBUS (5V) |
| P5 | SPI PMOD Voltage Selector | 3V3 | VBUS (5V) |
SPI Pmod Connector (P6)
Connect Pmod devices that use SPI interface to the left-hand side Pmod connector, as shown below.
