Kosmo Noise
About the Kosmo Noise PCB
Kosmo Noise is an open source PCB design by DavesKosmoModules, published on GitHub under the CC0-1.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 21 × 176 mm, with 51 components from 20 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the TL074. By type, the board carries 20 resistors, 17 capacitors, 5 connectors, 2 ICs, 2 diodes and 1 transistor.
From the project
- Noise generator - White - Pink - Red / Brown - Violet
- Noise generator - White - Pink - Red / Brown - Violet
Contained are schematics & gerber files for pcb fabrication of both electrical and front panel. This is sutiable for entry level however a basic level of electronics, soldering, fault finding, and some basic tools are required.
To calibrate, four pots can be accessed through the holes on the front plate.
- Adjust the white pot first as this noise if filtered for the remaining sources, looking for an output of +- 5V. - Adjust the three remaining pots for the respective output levels.
