Project Overview

• An 8x8 grid-based music synthesizer.

• Produces sound and emits light (LED) when user touches the buttons

• 3 music playing modes:o Sweep modeo Gravity modeo Memory mode

• Several different types of sound:o guitar, piano, and drum beats

Project-Specific Success Criteria

1.An ability to respond to touch by producing sound and emitting light.

2.An ability to memorize past note events and to play the selected tones in a sequence set by the user.

3.An ability to utilize an accelerometer to detect the inclination and direction of the device so that the pitch and tempo of music can be changed.

Project-Specific Success Criteria

4. An ability to load various sound effects such as guitar, piano and drum beats from the internal memory of the microcontroller and to play out the sound.

5.An ability to send the musical tones out to a computer through MIDI-USB protocol to be saved as a file.

Major Subsections

Printed Circuit Board

Major Subsections

• Power supply – voltage regulator and battery management IC

• LED driver chips• Audio converter• Headers for off-chip components and

important signals

Layout Considerations

• Power supply away from the rest of the circuit

• Digital signals isolated from analog signals

• Wider power and ground traces• I/O pins close to the board edge• Heat dissipation• Avoid acute angles and 90-degree

turn
