The microcontroller obviously needs the microcontroller it's designed for, so here's a link:

(There's also the "This creation needs", but i felt like pointing it out here also)
[b]Save Space. Simplify Wiring.[/b]
This small microcontroller works as a hub for your monitor addons. You connect the required data here, then feed its composite output to all your monitor addon microcontrollers.
[b]Why I Made It[/b]
It does exactly what a monitor addon would do if connected directly, but it’s its own module so you can save 2 blocks per monitor addon.
Example: if you have multiple addons, each one normally takes 6 blocks. With this hub, each addon only takes 4 blocks:
(Number of Addons = A) -> (A-1) * 2 = Blocks saved
[b]How It Helps[/b]
You only need to connect the hub once to your main microcontroller, then each monitor addon once. All the data still works the same, but your addons are smaller and the setup is simpler.
