MIDI Drum Machine Schematic Main CPU Section


Posted on Feb 5, 2014

The 82C55 and 7 segment decoders on the display board will be changed to a group of shift registers on the display board, so that the 82C55 and the large number of wires won`t be needed. The ADC0804 will be replaced with a serial interface ADC chip, and the 8051 will be replaced with a 89C51, so that the 27C16, 74HC373 and 74HC138 won`t be needed.

The main idea is to greatly reduce the number of wires, so that people who attempt to build the design without a printed circuit board will have far fewer wires to interconnect, and most wiring errors will result in only a portion of the drum machine not working, instead of having the entire thing dead and no reasonable way to troubleshoot. The new board will also only require a single 5 volt supply and will use an inexpensive EEPROM chip instead of battery backup.
