[sdiy] Interesting Chip - MV-52 - Tap-tempo Control Chip

[Tom Bugs]

Just noticed at SmallBear:

Made by Molten Voltage ( http://moltenvoltage.com/mvcart/ ) - this is an 
8pin 'Tap-Tempo' chip -> tap the button to set the speed of the 
pulsetrain output. Plus there's switchable Rate division.
Seems nice!

(sure it couldn't be all that hard to make a micro do this, but I never 
got far into that world... anyways, this seems a not-too-badly-priced 
design)

All best, Tom
