- U2 (voltage regulator, offset a little too far to the right)
- `sram-bank`: SRAM Bank Board
- There are actually two of these in the stack, one for each 1MB SRAM bank.
- These host the SRAM itself, the buffers that allow it to be alternately
controlled by the Sega or the microcontroller, and the level shifters that
allow it to interface to the 5V system of the Sega. This is the most
complex. A solder jumper on the board selects whether it responds as bank
1 or bank 2.

- The following parts must be populated by hand:
- J1 must be 2x Adafruit stacking headers modified to 26 pins each

- `microcontroller`: Microcontroller Board
- This hosts the microcontroller, voltage regulator, registers, sync token,

- This hosts the microcontroller, registers, sync token, and buffers to send
data to SRAM.
- The registers and sync token allow the Sega to send commands to the
microcontroller and wait for responses.
- The microcontroller is a Raspberry Pi Pico W, which is receives commands
through the registers and sync token, and is responsible for WiFi/Ethernet
