Nomenclature
These boards are candidates for the Generation 6 Electronics.
Status
We are busy developing new electronics dedicated for Mendel, Post-Mendels and RepStraps.
UPDATE: End of this week more info/pictures.
Our electronics will have a lot less pcb's and will be a lot cheaper then Makerbot's version of the RepRap Generation 3 and Generation 4 Electronics.
User:Camiel is the lead developer for these boards and is documenting in this space; and is currently the primary supplier via his webshop: mendel-parts.com
The boards are still under development and will be released approx. end of August / beginning of September 2010.
Version: 0.1
15-07-2010 First prototype has been successfully tested.
05-08-2010 First prints were printed successfully.
11-08-2010 We upgraded one of our production Mendels to the gen6 electronics and are printing mendel parts now with it.
(ps. its very quiet)

Have another good look at the picture.. yes you see it correctly, it only has one pcb.
Even the opto pcb's are gone, more news soon.
