Description
Now you can have a FRDM-MCXA153 Enclosure and protect your development board from inadvertent short circuits or other mishaps. You can also mount this FRDM-MCXA153 Enclosure using the mounting screws. Email to discuss modifications.
This FRDM-MCXA153 Enclosure comes in two pieces. A top piece with cutouts for access to the FRDM-MCXA153 development board. Without OPENING the case, you can:
- press reset buttons,
- see the LED lights,
- Access the expansion ports,
- access the USB ports, and
- Adjust the jumpers.
This FRDM-MCXA153 Enclosure is assembled with the following steps:
- Snap in the FRDM-MCXA153 board.
- Slide in the slide until the keeper snaps. This does not use a compliant mechanism, but the case will flex slightly until the keeper finds the keeper tab slot.
There are mounting holes in the slide mechanism on the FRDM-MCXA153 Enclosure. You can mount the slide FIRST on a wall, board, cabinet, perhaps even a 1U enclosure as the spacing is the 1U enclosure spacing. There are multiple mounting options enabled by the unique slide on design.
Current Features, attributes, and instructions:
- Gray PLA
- Screwless design – Snap together
- Pushbutton access without opening the design
- LED viewing holes so board can be monitored without opening
- Add on board connectors accessible
- Special orientation to protect against layer lines
- Volume quoting possible
- Mounting plate is also the bottom cover of the case making a very strong mounting arrangement
Happy to customize. Customization options:
- Material : Currently PLA – (others: ABS, ASA, PETG, potentially carbon fiber)
- Colors: PLA – Puke Green, Blue, Red, White, many others. For other materials, ask…
- Embossed Logo and PN
- Color Logo
- Mounting options: The design is modular and the mounting slide can be modified in many way. If desired, a multi-board mount could be created so you rack mount a bunch of boards.
- Case Cover: We could add less board access, light pipes, hide the connectors, embed in a bigger design, etc.
- Design Files: Happy to make these available for sale. I had to make a simple 3D model of the board. Not fancy. But very useful.
