2.4 Mechanical Mounting of the PCB

The spacers and screws provided with the AM273x EVM kit help to arrest the AM273x EVM in the horizontal plane. Figure 3-29 shows the assembly of mechanical spacers to the board.

The L-brackets provided with the AWR2443 EVM kit, along with the screws and nuts, help in the vertical mounting of the EVM. Figure 3-30 shows how the L-brackets can be assembled.

The AM273x EVM is designed to interface with the DCA1000 EVM on Debug Connector (J7). Figure 3-31 shows how the AM273x EVM can be connected to the DCA1000 EVM.
