The animator tiny board is used on the bandstand, outhouse and Christmas on wheels products.
Below is a schematic diagram of what pins on the pico are connected to what pads on the board. Wires are soldered directly to the boards.
The front side of the board has connections for the left and right speaker and track power. Note: Only the Christmas on wheels products use track power.
The backside of the board has all the connections for the servo motors, switches, neopixels, and volume control.
Connections Bandstand
This table has the connections for the bandstand.
