4/12/2023: Idea is as follows:
Slots for five logic cards that plug in to the board, an onboard Arduino is used to select the logic cards
Slot for a single clock card to control the master clock
Plug-in for the Wall outlet-to-24V like on R1
Power is broken into 20V, 12V, 6V and 3V and distributed by distribution tiles - one for each board in the system and they stack vertically from the backplane like the memory module PCB's
Backplane features mechanical relays for manual shutoff and fuses on the tiles for localized protection
Features a stiffener to prevent board warping like seen on R1

-Mechanical relays to physically cut power to 20V, 12V, 6V and 3V outputs -Slow, medium, fast and manual clocks + 2 ports for external clocks -Ports to gather data to send to python file -Stiffener to prevent board warping -Dock for espresso
