1- 12 user I/O

Multifunction I/O ports with easy connect modular connectors, makes it easy for you to add and remove external devices, such as sensors or LEDs.

5- Programming Port

Connects to a PC via a programming cable for program downloading. In-circuit programming allows you to repeatedly program the controller without having to remove the chip from the system.

2- Zilog Encore! XP

High performance microcontroller engine from Zilog, with Flash memory and built-in feature rich peripherals.

6- Reset Button

Lets you re-start the controller any time you find the need.

3- Motor Current Control

You limit the maximum current to the motor by adjusting this trimmer resistor.

7- Crystal Socket

Gives you the option to use external crystal and loading capacitor if you want the controller running at full speed.

4- High Quality FR-4 PCB

Easy to assemble, strong,  and reliable. This high grade PCB gives your circuit a professional appearance and long service life.
