The Parallel Breakout Board is one of the simplest and yet one of the most important parts for a traditional CNC machine. This parallel breakout board will take a signal from a male DB-25 connector and will convert the signal to an easy to access terminal block for direct wiring. Pins 1-17 are broken out according to a standard Parallel Port specification. Pins 18-25 are connected to ground.

Features

  • Easy adapter that breaks out the parallel port and converts to board to wire connectors.
  • Access to pins 1-17 of the parallel port. Pins 18-25 are grounded.

Board Layout

The board is 2.80" x 1.80" with mounting holes at 2.50" x 1.50" with 4mm holes (#6 screws can be used if 4mm screws are not available).
