From the project

Configuration for "Zenbot", the SSD circuit mill

This is a breakout board for connecting the Zenbot to a Mesa FPGA board.

It connects to a standard 50-pin ribbon cable from the Mesa FPGA board.

It passes the servo pins for channels 0, 1, and 2 to a second 50-pin connector, for connecting to the 7i30 and driving the X, Y, and Z servos.

The remaining FPGA connector pins are routed to screw terminals, for additional IO (eg the control line for an SSR to power the spindle).
