 The second purpose is to use a chain of shift registers to provide chip select (CS) signals. It is functionally equivalent to a DOUT module, but the header is directly compatible with GPIO on the Core.
+The pinout for the display connectors is as follows:
+{{:dispdriver:header_j1-j2.png?direct&600|}}\\
+(Power is connected to pin 10.)

 ===== Assembly =====
-The 1206 caps and SMT parts should be soldered first. Note the orientation of ICs! In general they will have pin 1/16 nearest the decoupling cap. Pin 1 for RNs is marked with a circle, important as these chips are also polarised. Some headers are marked as "socket this side." To use the module normally, install the headers on the rear side.
+All parts are THT, start with resistors and caps, IC sockets then headers.
-Note the instructions for DOUT1/2. You either need ICs 11/12 and resistors vertically mounted or spanning the outermost pads in place of IC11/12.

 J15A1/J10B1 chain another Display Driver. Note that the J15 connection should not be mirrored for subsequent boards.
+J9 is a power supply input that is sent to the displays over headers J1-J8. It may be better to wire the displays directly to the power supply rather than using the ribbon cable and connectors.
