From the project
Current hardware uses a high quality DAC(PCM5100) with 16bit/44.1kHz quality.
Current hardware uses a high quality DAC(PCM5100) with 16bit/44.1kHz quality.
It has MIDI IN and MIDI OUT/THRU. It uses the Arturia Standard for DIN to stereo jack, so type B midi. You can find adapters in almost every synthstore now.

But if you want to sell or do something with the software or hardware then it'd be nice to include my name and link to my Github somewhere :)

Fjöl: common questions
What microcontroller does the Fjöl use?
The Fjöl is built around the TEENSY40, from the NXP family.
How big is the Fjöl PCB?
The Fjöl measures 91.3 × 128.3 mm and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Fjöl?
116 components, from 47 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Fjöl design files?
From the hallmar/Eurorack-Modules repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Fjöl design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with hallmar. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Fjöl without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug NXP firmware against it before you order a PCB.
