Various small synthesizer Voltage Controlled Filter pcbs
Small SSI2140 based low pass filter PCB, designed to plug into a larger motherboard.
Basic datasheet implementation of the SSI2140 lowpass filter with "Output Gain" Q Compensation.
-Audio in: dry audio input to be filtered.
-Frequency CV in: 0 volts to +2.048 volts, higher voltage = higher sweep.
-Feedback CV in: 0 volts to +2.048 volts, higher voltage = more feedback.
