"Wilba SEQ 4 PCB" and LPC17 connection problems and missing the J5C LPC17


Recommended Posts

Hi!

I'm in the construction of a midiboxsequencer.

specifications:

LPC17, Wilba-Frontpannel, 3x MIDI IN / OU, 4 x MIDI OUT, OUT CV 8x, 8x GATE OUT, ​​MIDI SYNC

I have a 100% Wilba compatible frontpanel-layout and a second PCB with the other functional groups and the LPC17!

Unfortunately, I've noticed in reviewing the documents, some inconsistencies, or undocumented facts!

Since I have not found any answers and prevent the final completion of the PCBs I'm hoping for answers!

Problem 1:

The connection between J8 / 9 to the Wilba-frontpanel know for discrepancies.

The 32bit cores have separate connections RC (RC1 and RC2). The front panel has only one Wilba (RC)!

How should I connect the Wilba matrix??

My PCB has separate RC.

Problem 2:

I need 8x GATE, MIDI sync and MIDI I / O 3 Unfortunately, in which no LCP17 A8-A11 (J5C) available!

MIDI3 is connected according to wiring diagram A6/A7!

But where MIDI SYNC is connected?

And where do I connect the GATE 8x?

I thought about a DOUT register! Best described as the first register in the chain.

Is that possible?

I hope you can help me ....

Greetings Dirk

Hi Dirk,

My PCB has separate RC.

RC1 and RC2 output the same signal for compatibility reasons.

You can use any pin

Problem 2:

I need 8x GATE, MIDI sync and MIDI I / O 3 Unfortunately, in which no LCP17 A8-A11 (J5C) available!

MIDI3 is connected according to wiring diagram A6/A7!

But where MIDI SYNC is connected?

This isn't implemented for the MBHP_CORE_LPC17 variant yet, but I'm planning to make it available at J28 (the "Audio DAC" port)

I will release a new version today

And where do I connect the GATE 8x?

J5A and J5B

Please note: for all gate/clock signals it's recommended to use a 74HCT541 as 3.3V -> 5V level shifter

Best Regards, Thorsten.
