Noise / Sample & Hold

4HP Eurorack Module

Features

  • White and pink(ish) noise output
  • Sample-and-hold with variable slew rate
  • S&H can be triggered by an internal clock or external input
  • Internal clock is output on the trigger jack when selected

Notes

This module is built using the Delptronics Module Construction Set which includes PCBs for the front panel controls and other components. The PCB layout file is just a guide showing how I placed the components on the Delptronics boards. (It's a bit of a mess - sorry!)

Please note that I am a hobbyist, not a trained electronics engineer. No guarantees!

Questions

How big is the Adder PCB?

It measures 95 × 108.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Adder use?

55 parts, built around the TL072. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Adder KiCad files?

From the Len42/Synth repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is modules/Adder/Adder.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Adder design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Len42 before reusing the design.
