ITS1A CLOCK

Display Header and Connector

This is a picture of the front of the display board. This is the side the tubes will be visible from.

Connectors

It connects at right-angles to the main board. A 1x20 socket is soldered to the main board, and a 20-pin
right-angled header is soldered to the display board. The two are held together using right-angled
brackets:

This is one way to make sure that everything lines up, when the socket and header are soldered in place:

1.

Install the brackets on the main board.
