Yamaha YMF825Board (Arduino 4 operator FM shield)

Bij het zoeken naar informatie over de Yamaha NSX-1 chip kwam ik op hun Github.io pagina dit tegen:

https://yamaha-webmusic.github.io/ymf825board/intro/index-e.html

Dit is een uitbreidingsmodule voor de Arduino in de vorm van een Yamaha 4 operator FM chip ! Blijkbaar eind 2017 uitgebracht.

About YMF825Board

YMF825(SD-1) (installed in YMF825Board) is an FM tone generator LSI for white goods.
We installed this chip on a small board, attached pin headers and audio terminals etc, so that makers can easily use it.

Yamaha's purpose for this board

The manufacturing by individuals called "Maker Movement", "Personal Fabrication" is expanding all over the world.
We recognize the growth potential and possibilities of "individual manufacturing", and hope that our iconic FM tone generator would help with the movement.
While FM tone generators are strongly related to product groups such as electronic musical instruments and synthesizers, we expect that individual makers will come up with something unexpected!

Specification of Tone Generator

16-voice polyphonic 4-operators FM synthesizer
29 on-chip operator-waveforms and 8 algorithms offers a whole variety of sound
Synchronous serial data link for host controller interface
Integrated loudspeaker driver
Integrated 3-band equalizer
Integrated 16-bit monaural DAC
Flexible Power Supply Configurations

This is a board with a Yamaha YMF825 (SD-1) mounted on it.
The SD-1 is a 4-operator, 16-voice polyphonic FM synthesizer chip.
Its registers can be controlled directly by SPI. The board has a crystal unit. The chip has a DAC and an amplifier.
You can generate sound by only manipulating the registers.
