I am a big fan of adapters like this. Did some shields that work on Uno and Feathers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An improvement might be to add resistor option to cross RX/TX and make the power rails directional with Schottky diodes and then be able to plug in a Pico and a MKR controller and have a multiprocessor system. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I did not check, but do have RESET and RUN correct directions/polarities to not block the other part?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh, and silkscreen on the pins to label their function would be nice. Are the square pads GND? Nice detail.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Good work,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- Wolfgang.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=10762&amp;AppID=86&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
