This week we reviewed Adam’s schematic, adding labels/clarifications where necessary and correcting errors. We received feedback from Ryan to include a clipping indicator, which we added to our design specification to be implemented in software. Ryan also suggested a audio-specific ADC, which we decided to use. In addition, we determined that the SPI protocol would be a better choice than the 6800 parallel interface for our LCD display.
We met up to work on the design presentation slide deck, splitting up development of the content on the slides for Adam to present.
Sam and Xingran discussed the implementation of the DSP effects, and due to the limited SRAM of the microcontroller, decided to switch from reverb to delay as an MVP effect. We adjusted the schedule to give Sam another week to work on prototyping the MVP effects in MATLAB
We worked on the overall software block diagram to supplement our hardware block diagram to prepare for the design presentation.
Adam will give a dry run of his design presentation on Sunday to Xingran and Sam to receive feedback for the actual presentation Monday/Wednesday.
We will be ready to order our Rev1 board by Wednesday!
