The project is still at the mercy of hardware vendors that make these boards for signage.

The board is almost totally reverse-engineered, but without such a bulk production one won't get this affordable price

I really like this project.
Today the second 5A-75B-V8.0 will arrive. Can“t wait to flash it with LiteX.
And when I get the workflow for the modules finally, things will become even more exciting

@TOLP2 can you explain how to deal with stepgen constraints and how to set them properly? Imagine that one is implementing a machine with servo drives configured to 1000 steps/mm and maximum speed 1m/sec (60m/min) (this yields 1 MHz step clock). Let servo period will be 500 usec, jitter is 10 usec (10/500=2%) and expected joint following error 20 um at a maximum speed (possible position error caused by jitter at a maximum speed: 10us*1m/sec=+-10 um). Are these values achievable? How to set up pick up value properly?

Maybe this answer which helped me, will help you....

As mentioned in the documentation, the max step frequency will be 400kHz

There is already 54 pages...
Can anybody give brief info, is ColorCNC works, is ready for use in real machine, and how to install it?
Thanks in advance.
