 ====== MIDIbox Matrix - MIDI Matrix with 56 Inputs and 56 Outputs ======
 This MIDIbox implements a 56-port MIDI matrix/router using a core board and an FPGA-based add-on board together with a set of break-out boards and modules that allow for physically placing your MIDI ports where you actually need them.

-It is also possible to use a BOB together directly with an STM32F4 core board. Especially if you need the MIDI ports at some physical distance from the core board you should use the BOB-to-STM32 adapter. It provides an adapter from the IDC connector J11E to the DSUB 9pin connector on the BOB, as well as a line driver and level shifter for the MIDI out signals coming from the core board.

 The basic idea is rather simple: for each MIDI out port, a MIDI in port is selected whose signals should be forwarded. This selection is communicated to a 56(64)-to-1 multiplexer via a single 6(8)-bit shift register in the DOUT chain. Indeed, as we have 56 MIDI out ports, the corresponding DOUT chain is 56 shift registers long. However, thanks to the fact that this is "virtual" logic inside the FPGA, such long shift register chains do not present any signal integrity problems as witnessed in some other projects that use long SR chains. Any other DIN or DOUT shift registers you might want to use, e.g. for the user interface, must be located in the SR chain //before// this board.
-Additionally, you can also merge MIDI streams. The FPGA board holds two PIC16LF88 based 2-to-1 MIDI mergers in parallel. Their inputs are served from any of the 56 MIDI in ports, and their outputs are forwarded to the STM32 core board for further MIDI stream processing. These streams can then be fed back into the Matrix and routed to any of the 56 MIDI out ports.

This is the second generation v1.1 FPGA board which has a pair of MIDI I/Os, and an AC power plug (which can also be used to feed DC power). The board can loop through the USB signals from the Micro USB plug found on the STM32F4 Discovery board to the outside world when the whole unit is mounted in an enclosure. The FPGA board connects to J8/J9 of the core board for DIN and DOUT chains, and to J11E for MIDI connectivity.

The FPGA board connects to J8/J9 of the core board for DIN and DOUT chains, and to J11E for MIDI connectivity. The pair of MIDI I/O sockets on this board connects directly to MIDI I/O number 4 of the core board. In the future, it might be possible to remote control the MIDIbox Matrix via this MIDI port (yes, if my time allows...).
-The FPGA board provides a range of power supply options. It can be fitted with a 5V and a 3.3V power section - the latter is obligatory if you want to use one or two PIC16LF88 MIDI mergers which run at 3.3V. Otherwise, it can be omitted, as the FPGA gets its 3.3V from its own 3.3V regulator. Also, you might have a stable 5V supply already, in which case you can also omit the 5V section. You can also supply the core board from the FPGA board via J8/J9 and J11E.

 The actual FPGA sits piggyback underneath the PCB, on a separate daughter board. An Altera Cyclone II device is used (EP2C8) which has a sufficiently large number of I/O pins. The daughterboard is from [[http://www.wvshare.com|Waveshare]], a Chinese manufacturer offering a wide range of development and evaluation boards.

 ===== User Interface =====
-The user interface (UI) is based on the [[http://ucapps.de/midibox_ng_manual_scs.html|MIDIbox SCS]], two dedicated clickable encoders for in- and out-port selection, and an additional PANIC button. It fits in the frontpanel of a standard 2U rack case, offers a 2x24 display for feedback, and 5 buttons along with an encoder for navigating the menu system. So far, an alpha prototype version of the board has been tested successfully on veroboard.

+A second generation PCB as pictured above has been ordered and tested to work. This PCB can also be used with other projects involving an SCS, e.g. the [[http://ucapps.de/midibox_ng.html|MIDIbox NG]]. Both, my favourite switches from [[16x4blm_pcb|Marquardt (6425 series)]], as well as the [[16x4blm_pcb|E-Switch TL1100 series]] (see e.g. MB SEQv4) can be used.
+==== Schematic ====
+The v1.0 schematic of the MIDIbox Matrix UI/SCS board can be downloaded {{:home:users:ilmenator:midibox_matrix_ui_scs_v1.0_schematics.pdf|here}}.
+==== Layout ====
+As with any user interface board, form follows function here. Switches and encoders are mounted on the front, everything else sits on the back of the PCB. There are mounting holes and a cutout for a 2x24 character display right above the four "soft" buttons. For the MIDIbox Matrix, SW7 (on the far right) is not used, but your project might need it.
