Thanks Charles. I'm confused.
I thought the machinekit firmware for the de0-nano programmed the fpga for motion control to provide a very high quality pulse train to the drivers? Bearing in mind my previous posts in this thread is there something I can buy to properly interface a de0-nano to a g540 that's connected to a 6040, could I use the beaglebone cape I have with jumper wires, is it only really isolation and 3.3v/5v logic shifting that I want between the de0-nano and the g540? Thanks again.

Not that I know of, sorry. The boards are available from OSH-Park: https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/ZSjsiCUd ...and they're pretty easy to assemble, just make sure you use the real part numbers in the BOM rather than the generic KiCAD library part name shown on the schematic: https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/bobc_hardware/ blob/CRAMPS/DE0-Nano_DB25/DE0-Nano_DB25.ods?raw=true Of course the main reason to have one of the DE0-Nano_DB25 boards is for talking to Mesa hardware. If you're not wanting to use Mesa DB25 daughter boards, you may want to just wire up something custom (since you will probably need more driver and protection logic than is on the DE0-Nano_DB25 anyway). The DE0 uses standard 0.025" pin headers on 0.1" spacing so you can mount matching sockets on perfboard or use a (short!) ribbon cable to connect to a hand wired breakout/driver board. -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
