About the Tm1638-test PCB

Tm1638-test is an open source PCB design by FrankBuss, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 100 × 100 mm, with 80 components from 9 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the TM1638 and CA56-12EWA. By type, the board carries 40 diodes, 24 switches, 10 resistors, 3 ICs, 2 capacitors and 1 connector.

It belongs with the audio designs in this gallery.

From the project

A MIDI sequencer

For programming you can use an USBasp. The red wire of the USBasp programmer needs to be connected to the pin 1 location:

For debugging, there is the jumper J5 near the MIDI connector, to connect a 5V UART receiver. Connect the top pin to GND (black wire in the image) and the bottom pin to the UART RX input (grey wire) :

The Arduino IDE doesn't flash the ATmega fuses, so initially you need to do this from the command line with avrdude like this:
