Gecko G3x0 Error/Reset Controller

As mentioned a short time ago, I've put together a couple of small
circuits for use with my Gecko G320s.
One is a controller to easily handle the Error/Reset pin of the G320s,
the other is a differential receiver/transmitter for the quadrature
encoders coming from the motors.
The Error/Reset controller is easy to interface, handles individual
channel enable switches, control relays, faults all channels in the event
of a single fault, mirrors the Gecko LEDs to a front panel, and a few other
things.
This stuff can be seen on some (simple) pages, including schematics and
source, at

Errors, omissions or comments appreciated.
