One though for Fonik - could you think of leaving a larger footprint area, with perhaps multiple pinouts, (as the late Jurgen Haible did on his PCBs), for the timing caps. I have a lot of High quality 2n2 polystyrenes, (and yes - I will give batches of then out for postage), but I couldn't get them to fit. I just squeezed some 2n2 polypropylenes I had in stock into place, and I will try the COG's in future, but I think a little more flexibility in the capacitor area would be a good idea.


i get you point, and i will consider this for new designs. in fact i did it for the PS3100 resonators.

this is how i managed to fit the polysterene:

TH 555 VCO (custom)

I got one batch from 'Magic Smoke Eectronics' and the others from Farnell, but it seems they only have the 2K ones in SMT, now. I future I will be using the SMT ones because it's easier to get a closer bond the to the transistor package. The could even be mounted inside an IC socket to get a close contact with a socketed dual pair, and to avoid the effects of drafts.


TheProf, how did you match the transistors? I've never done it before.

maybe Ian Fritz' easy and elegant transistor matcher (look for at least less than 2mV, super matched pairs are more in the max 200uV region though).
Transistor Matching taken from here:

Great! I'm interested in the LFO and the ADSR as well so if it's possible with a waiting list there too I would be happy!

I'm highly interested in 2 PCBs!
I'd love to get on that waitinglist, will you e-mail when the PCBs are available?

i could think of asking fo interest in all 3 th projects (VCO, LFO, ADSR) in january. i already sold quite a few of these PCBs/Panels and we will have to see if there was enough interest to justify a panel run.

About r25. Here you say 300k but on project BOM it says 27k. Which one should I choose?

And also - 137k for eurorack, how sensitive is that?

from the 1st post of this thread:

Quote:
BUILDING NOTES

1)
in the original schematic of the VCO from thomas henry we three times a resistor R26, whereas R25 is missing completely.
so here are the values corresponding to the PCB labeling that are not covered correctly by the schematic/parts list:
R25 - 300k
R26 - 39k
R55 - 5.6k



robboten wrote:

this resistor sets the amplitude of the saw output. if you wanted to stay consistent within the module and have about 10Vpp for all outputs you should go with 137k. i know it is from the E96 value series and amybe hard to get, however, you could always use a 110k and a 27k in series...

Thanks. Yes, I saw that first post. But you say that it's missing in original but it's not, it says 27k. And you say 300k in that first post. It's quite different numbers too, that's why I ask. I don't know if I misunderstand you?
