Louis Guralnek says December 12, 2015 at 9:28 am Bought and used CGColorMax2. Bought and received CGMicroKit1 and CGMicroBoard2. Questions: 1. Re CGMicroBoard2. What type of USB connector does it use? Your literature didn’t say. I need to purchase a suitable cable. 2. Re CGMicroKit1. Is it possible to run it off 3VDC (2 x AA cells)? If so, how? 3. Can the SPI outputs from the above two boards run a 74HC595 powered from 5V? Regards, Louis – Reply
