From the project

Open Source Mechanical Split Flap Display, AKA Solari display

This directory contains the editable KiCad 10 design for one Alphabets V2 split-flap module. The board keeps the existing 2x3 synchronous-ring connector, drives an external four-input stepper board, reads a powered HOME sensor, and uses the ATtiny1624's one-wire UPDI programming interface.

The hardware assignment follows Microchip's ATtiny1624/1626/1627 data sheet. Microchip documents PA0 as UPDI/RESET and PA1, PA2, and PA3 as SPI0 MOSI, MISO, and SCK respectively. The standard programming connection is the 2x3, 2.54 mm UPDI header described in Microchip's UPDI connection guide.
