Specifications
Table 1: Pin Labels represent pins used on the PyBoard as seen in the schematic, with each of their functions listed. Any pins not included have No Connection (N.C.).
Table 2: Specs of each individual component are listed for absolute maximum ratings. The actual spectrometer will typically not run at these ratings, but it is built for them to ensure it does not overload.
Table 3: LED light patterns are included in hopes of making it more user friendly, giving color codes for certain states of the spectrometer.
