Schematic and CAD files for my 68K based computer

The YM2151 is a Yamaha FM synthesis chip with 8 channels, each of which has 4 operators. The YM2151 was used in many Arcade games, including games like Outrun and Ghouls 'n Ghosts.

The YM2151 has a digital output so requires a YM3012 10-bit 2-channel DAC to generate the analoge output. The output of the DAC is fed into a TPA3122D2 15-W Amplifier.

A LTC6903 1kHz – 68MHz Programmable Oscillator is used to generate the clock for the YM2151. I chose to use a programmable oscillator here rather than a fixed frequency crystal was mainly to be able to play back VGM and other music files. Depending…
