Bus Board connection!

Bus Board connection!

2008-12-17 by gabu_004

Hello Group!

Anyone would have a suggestion on how I could expand a Doepfer bus board?
By that I mean add up more connections (as in I'm using many small modules but miss space 
to connect them)... and no worries, the power consumption doesn't bust the case,s limit!

thanks y'all

Plan B Model 1 would be a nice fit:

You could add connectors to one end of the ribbon cables and plug them  
into two adjacent modules or more. The ribbon connectors will get  
shorter of course but you can at least double the count without much  
trouble.

Just fit another board in the rack. Just make sure you get its power from 
the same point the existing board gets it's power (i.e. don't daisy-chain 
the boards). You may have to make some adjustment to the connections to do 
that.

The most economic solution is to make special Y-type bus cables with double
length. I.e. a 40 cm longe ribbon cable with one 16 pin female header in the
center of the cable (this is connected to the bus board) and one 10 pin or
16 pin female header on each end. Another solution is the usage of a special
daisy-chain ribbon cable with one 16 pin female header on one end (connected
to the bus board) and for example four 10 pin or 16 pin female headers with
the required distances between the connectors. These are connected to the
modules and daisy-chained from one module to the next one. But this type of
multiple ribbon cable connection is recommend only for control modules but
not for audio processing modules or VCOs.

Hi,

Another option is hat I am shortly to release a 4-way busboard with power 
delay circuitry based on the Ken Stones CGS63. The power on circuitry 
provides a delayed-on for the 4 IDC power sockets and helps reduce switch-on 
loading on he power supply as well as ensure a cleaner start-up power rail 
for the attached modules. The delay circuitry can, of course, be left off 
providing a small 4-port bus board

Best Regards
