Katoomba: Triple LFO

 

Katoomba is the triple LFO that featured previously on this blog, but with its own panel and custom PCB. It has the following features:

* Power usage: -12V 43mA/+12V 46mA.

* A medium speed LFO (0.01 Hz to 2 Hz) with triangle wave, square wave (0-5V) and square wave (-5-5V) outputs.

* A slow speed triangle LFO (0.001 Hz to 0.3 Hz).

* A fast speed LFO (1 Hz to 200 Hz) with two triangle wave outputs (0-5V and attenuated -5-5V).

Each LFO has an LED indicating its current polarity and the panel is language agnostic (although it still reads left to right).

The Katoomba was designed in EasyEDA (schematic will be at the bottom of this blog post) based on the circuit from David Haillant with modifications to allow multiple outputs at the same time and different voltage levels. This version uses a 16-pin voltage connector, because it is more convenient for my setup, but it doesn't use 5V, so it could use a more standard 10-pin connector as well.

In this version I decided to use the smaller potentiometers to allow more room for the cables, but since these have the same footprint as the other potentiometers this can always be changed.
