A week ago went back to to Tiva C launchPad, this time I am interested in to refresh some concepts and try examples of RTOS (Real Time Operating System). The use of a RTOS usually means several hardware peripherals (sensors, keypads, displays .. etc). A breadboard and many jumpers was filling my imagination.

I need a Base Plate to organize the wiring, also a way of use top and bottom connectors in the launchPad. This is the story of last two days…

First thing, I need to finish the assembly of a tablesaw from Grizzly (it was resting semi-assembled in the garage).

Note:This project will be done in a couple of hours using acrylic plastic  if you have access to a laser cutter, in my case I am fan of woodworking… (the laser will come some day…).

A serie of images will explain the project…

While dried, we need a pin reference for the bottom:
