    I’m building a 5-axis CNC very similar to the pocket nc and I want to use a TinyG. Can you tell me what I need to plug into the TinyG board to control the A and B axis just as was done with the pocket nc?

    That’s good to know. Thanks telling me that.

    Ok that’s what I thought but just wanted to be sure. I’ll need to make a common ground strip for 5 micro switches. And I assume that I will need to use a stand alone 3.3v power source connecting the pos to the 3.3V board terminal and the neg to common ground?

    I don’t know what pulled high means. I know what ohms are and that uF refers to capacitance but my knowledge of electronics is limited to that of a hobbyist so I need very simple explanations. I just simply want to know how to connect XYZ micro limit switches to my TinyG board so the axis travel doesn’t exceed the mechanical limits of the machine.
