Functional Description

Screw terminals provide two features that are not easily offered by pin headers. With their large surface area, it is
easy to pass larger amounts of power through them without running the risk of having them overheat.
Additionally, with the ability to screw down onto wires, it is possible to attach this Pmod to objects that otherwise
could not be attached to a breadboard or conveniently soldered.

Interfacing with the Pmod

Through its GPIO interface, you can easily send out a high or low voltage signal from a pin on the system board
and have it get sent straight to the appropriate screw terminal.
