OPL2LPT-Replica

Introduction

OPL2LPT-Replica is a re-designed, open-source simplified version of OPL2LPT circuit board with fewer components under MIT license, acting as a YM3812 FM synthesizer on LPT port, and fully Adlib Card compatible.

Development & Manufacture

  • Please use Altium Designer 16 or above to open or edit the PCB project

  • Gerber files and NC drill files are already exported in gerbers folder, so that PCB samples can be easily manufactured

    https://www.jlc.com/ is recommended to order PCB samples in China

Notes for Assembling & Testing

  • 5V DC power is needed, either from Mini-USB port or external power pins

  • Try to press RST SW to apply a manual reset when YM3812 behaves abnormal

  • Detailed parameters for components are noted on the board's silkscreen

  • Crystal must be 3.58MHz for accurate pitch of notes

  • Using 74LS04 to substitute 74HC04 for the Pierce oscillator is not recommended

    Note: If the oscillator doesn't work, replace the two 1k ohms resistors around the 74HC04 IC with higher value resistors such as 4.7k ohms. Fine tuning for 100pF (101) MLCC capacitor around the 74HC04 may be also needed.

  • Available open-source drivers for this project:
