This project is a hardware Video Game Music (VGM) player that uses a genuine YM2151 FM synthesizer chip. This project is driven by an STM32 "Blue Pill" board, chosen for it's ample speed, I/O, and best of all, price!
Included in this repository is the source code for the project, all of the schematic files, a Bill of Materials, and a completed Ki-CAD printed circuitboard /w Gerber files. Feel free to produce your own board!
