Overview

DaisyDelayHardwareTestRoute is an open-source printed circuit board by fablabnk, from the fablabnk/DaisyDelayHardware repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 105.7 × 128.5 mm with 55 parts on 66 nets, routed with 242 tracks and 0 vias.

Its parts include 20 resistors, 16 capacitors, 5 connectors, 3 ICs and 1 diode.

README

README.md

This repo documents the hardware design of a Daisy Seed-based Eurorack module called the Daisy Delay and contains the KiCad files for the project.

The Daisy Delay is planned as simple 6HP mono delay-line module, but can easily be used as a development platform for any kind of single-in/single-out audio processor.

This README gives an overview of the project, but there are also seperate notes for the schematic and the PCB.

The module was first prototyped in VCVRack, before before being converted back to code that will run on the Seed. For more details on the VCVRack plugin, see here.

Components / Bill of Materials (BOM)

The

  • 2 x 10K (for now) potentiometers
  • 1 x SPST mini switch
  • 1 x small LED (? diameter)
  • 4 x Thonkiconn mono switching jack sockets (PJ301M-12)
  • 1 x TL072 op amp
  • 1 x TL074 op amp
  • 1 x Shrouded 10 pin power connector
  • various resistors
  • various ceramic capacitors

Workflow

Below is the basic workflow I am following to develop the module.

  1. Design schematic
  • symbol and footprint for Seed Rev4 are already included in KiCad - search for "electrosmith"
  1. Design front panel in Kicad PCB editor
  • use VCV plugin panel .svg as template
  • laser cut on paper / thin card first to test fit
  1. Layout and Route PCB
  • one board which drops onto components
  • laser cut on paper / thin card first to test fit
  • 2 layer / 4 layer routing?
  1. Convert code to seed format
  • test code on Pod
  1. Send for fabrication (PCBWay)
  • Order 5 x front and back panels
