Re: [oberheim] Re: Matrix-6 display replacement project

2015-01-14 by Bob Grieb

Hi Daniel,
Well, I will certainly put the code and a schematic on my web site.I can offer a small pc bd with the PIC, plus ribbon cable connectors forthe connections to the pcb and the display.  I could arrange the displayconnections so that the board would plug onto displays that have the 16pin (14 plus backlight) in a row, as many do.  Even that is tricky, as some 
displays use a dual-row header along side the display, while some have the 
14/16 pins along the top edge and others along the bottom.   I can try to lay 
out a board that will work with any of these three.  

But picking a display that is the right color, and the right size to replacethe original is tough.   Also, that would require removing the original 
display, which means removing the pc bd as well.   So for now I willleave all of that up to the user. 

Bob
