The new Motor Control Board is a really interesting kit.
It's only $150 (same price as the XC-2 Ethernet) but it comes with a huge amount more I/O!
What do you think of this kit? Possible game-changer for XMOS?

How does it look up-side down ?
Can you stack it on a (selfmade) daughter board ?
Great price including some digital isolation !

I'll try get a picture of the bottom.lilltroll wrote:How does it look up-side down ?
We're updating the stock image on xmos.com because the connector is actually on the top side of the board, so you can actually stack other boards on top of this one.Can you stack it on a (selfmade) daughter board ?

I think I took the first one from DigiKey. It is already in the hands of UPS.

I meant the image on the website, not the actual board. You should get one with a top mounted connection.
