Other key parts include the 74LVC1G07QSE-7, C20082, CmodA7-35T, C1348777 and UDA1334A. By type, the board carries 27 resistors, 21 capacitors, 12 ICs, 10 connectors, 10 diodes and 6 inductors.
It belongs with the audio designs in this gallery.
From the project
PCBs for the excellent FPGA synth projects XFM2 and XVA1.
This site contains some stuff I have built for the excellent FPGA XFM2/XVA FPGA DIY synths by futur3soundz/René Ceballos. You can find them here: https://www.futur3soundz.com.
I tinker with electronics, release stuff when I feel like it and I make it public when it's maybe not perfect. I'm not an electronics expert, so I may not always know what I'm doing. I learn the necessary electronics as I use it. Use at your own risk.
