# JST PH 6-Pin Breakout Board

This JST-PH 6-pin Breakout Board is designed to adapt external sensors to the SPARK MAX 6-pin Encoder Port standard. It features a JST PH 6-pin connector, labeled solder pads, and through-hole pads that are compatible with popular 63R style quadrature encoders. This breakout makes it easy to connect external encoders to the SPARK MAX when running in Brushed Mode.
