Board Layout

Two Ethernut Expansion Connectors are available. X1 (female) is mounted on the bottom of the board and pointing down to mount the IDE board on top of Ethernut. X2 (male) is pointing up and can be used to add another board on top, like the Medianut MP3 board.

This design is outdated. The final board will use a Xilinx CPLD.
