Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: MOTM

As some of you know, the MOTM-650 MIDI-CV converter has been delayed a ∗long time∗ because of the
original uP we selected had bugs, and the "fix" of the chip didn't help us any. The design was
then split into 2 uPs, which was a royal pain because of keeping track of 2 code sets, hacking up
prototypes, etc.

Well, as they say, the third time's the charm :)

New samples of the "we fixed the fixed part" seem to be working as predicted by the data sheet.
The new 'flavor' adds more internal RAM, more code space and a separate baud-rate timer (for MIDI
I/O) that frees up 1 internal timer (for portamento).

So.....after months of 'mothballing', the project is back on track. No firm delivery date, but
I'll keep you posted. Hopefully, the last fixed bit (SPI port for communicating to the DACs) is
fixed and we can get this thing out the door.
