Here lies some random pieces of information that may make it easier to understand the code base

Notes:
    Power supply must be 5V for proper operation of the board!

KNOWN ISSUES:
    Cube is occasionally flickering to ~60Hz. Need to figure out why.
    >= 400MHz I2C1 doesn't seem to work very well the controllers

PERIPHERAL USAGE:
        SPI1 - Used by the cube code to send data to the cube
        SPI4 - Unused
        I2C1 - Used by the controller code
    TIMER2 - Used by PWM2
        TIMER4 - Used by the cube code for the overlay rotation interrupt / controllers
        TIMER5 - Used by the cube code for the update layer interrupt
        UART1 - Used by the cube code for reading in frame data
        PWM2 - Generates a constant ~20MHz output, uses TIMER2
    ETHERNET - Used to remote-update the cube

PERIPHERAL INTERRUPT PRIORITY LEVELS:
        IPL1 = lowest, IPL7 = highest priority
        SPI1 - Priority 6, Subpriority 1
        SPI4 - Priority 6, Subpriority 2
        I2C1 - Priority 5, Subpriority 2
    TIMER5 - Priority 4, Subpriority 1
        TIMER4 - Priority 1, Subpriority 1
        UART1 - Priority 2, Subpriority 1
    ETHERNET - Priority 1, Subpriority 1

    Place a shorting block in the lower, ?DBG? position to have the
            board powered from the debug USB connector, J15.
J17 - External Power Connector
 * This is a 2.5mm x 5.5mm, center positive, coax power connector used to
    provide external power to the board. The optional Digilent 5V Switching
    Power Supply is connected here.
J18 - External Power Connector
 * This is a screw terminal connector used to provide external power to
    the board. Be sure to observe proper polarity (marked near the connector)
    when providing power via this connector, or damage to the board and/or
    connected devices may result.

 JUMPERS:

 JP1 & JP2 - CAN or Pmod Select
  * These jumpers select microcontroller signals RF12 and RF13 for use with CAN
     #1 or Pmod connector JF. Place these jumpers in the CAN position to use CAN
     #1. Place the jumpers in the PMOD position to use then with Pmod connector JF.
 JP3 & JP4 - Pull-up enable for I2C port #2
  * These two jumpers are used to enable/disable the pull-up resistors on I2C
     port #2. Insert shorting blocks on these two jumpers to enable the pull-up
     resistors. Remove the shorting blocks to disable the pull-up resistors. Only
     a single device on the I2C bus should have the pull-up resistors enabled.
 JP5 - CAN #1 Termination
  * This jumper is used to enable/disable the 120 ohm termination resistor for
     CAN #1. Insert the shorting block to enable the termination resistor, remove
     it to disable the termination resistor.
 JP6 - CAN #1 5V0 Enable
  * This jumper is used to enable/disable providing 5V to the CAN #1 connector.
