@ -110,17 +110,44 @@ When searching for VU meter circuits, many use the LM3916 LED bar graph driver,
|
|||
But this chip is obsolete and not produced any more, so we designed our own chain of comperators to drive a set of LEDs.
|
||||
|
||||
#### User Interface Hardware
|
||||
For the potentiometers, we first wanted to use ones with a conductive plastic resistor element for maximum longevity from Bourns, but these are hard to find with logarithmic scaling.
|
||||
An affordable and easily obtainable (Reichelt) alternative was found in the Alps RK11K and RK14K series.
|
||||
They are available in linear and logarithmic scale, as well as single (mono) and dual (stereo) units and have a nice feeling.
|
||||
(Update: The Alps RK09 series needs quite less space in the stereo version, so no perfect solution was found, yet.)
|
||||
After some long research to find single and dual channel, logarithmic scale potentiometers with the same dimensions, there are only a few options left:
|
||||
1. Alps Alpine Series RK09K/D, 10 kOhm (log), 15 mm length, vertical mount: RK09K1130AJ3 (single) and RK09K12C0A19 (dual)
|
||||
6 mm D-style (4.5 mm) shaft, 6 mm flattened + 2.2 mm (incl. 0.8 mm collar) = 8.2 mm from top
|
||||
Notes: Knob might touch surface, assuming 2 mm front plate thickness
|
||||
2. Alps Alpine Series RK09K/D, 10 kOhm (log), 30 mm length, vertical mount: RK09D117000C (single) and RK09K12C0A8K (dual)
|
||||
6 mm D-style (4.5 mm) shaft, 12 mm flattened + 11.2 mm (incl. 5.0 mm collar) = 23.2 mm from top
|
||||
Notes: Quite long shaft, matching knobs difficult to find
|
||||
3. **Alps Alpine Series RK097**, 10 kOhm (log), 15 mm length, horizontal mount: RK097111080J (single) and RK09712200MC (dual)
|
||||
6 mm D-style (4.5 mm) shaft, 7 mm flattened + 8 mm (incl. 5 mm threaded collar) = 15 mm from top
|
||||
Notes: More expensive than RK09K; Thread should fix 2 mm front plate well
|
||||
4. Alps Alpine Series RK097, 10 kOhm (log), 20 mm length, horizontal mount: RK097111080R (single) and RK09712200HA (dual)
|
||||
6 mm D-style (4.5 mm) shaft, 12 mm flattened + 8 mm (incl. 7 mm threaded collar) = 20 mm from top
|
||||
Notes: Quite long shaft, matching knobs difficult to find
|
||||
|
||||
Another potentiometer from Omeg was tried, but it had a "jump" in the resistor value at some knob positions.
|
||||
Possible knobs may be:
|
||||
- Rean F311/ F313 series (11/ 13 mm diameter): 9 mm hole depth (no skirt/ flush with end of flatted axis section)
|
||||
Notes: Will fit option 1 (and 2, if potentiometer placed accordingly)
|
||||
- Rean P670 series (12 mm diameter/ 16 mm at bottom): 7.5 mm hole depth + 4.5 mm skirt = 12 mm
|
||||
Notes: Should fit option 3
|
||||
- Cliff K87MAR series/ RS Pro 777-73xx: 7.5 mm hole depth + 4.5 mm skirt = 12 mm, inner size of skirt 12 mm (measured)
|
||||
Notes: Should fit option 3 (boring for potentiometer nut a bit tight); Size quite like Rean R670
|
||||
- Rean P300 series (11 mm diameter/ 15 mm at bottom): 9 mm hole depth + 3 mm skirt
|
||||
Notes: Might also fit option 3
|
||||
|
||||
TODO: On-Air button
|
||||
The On-Air button needs to be a latching SPST (or SPDT) switch with LED illumination, like:
|
||||
- E-Switch LP11EE1NCSYG
|
||||
|
||||
A possible UI layout in an [Bopla ATPH 1865-0250](https://www.bopla.de/gehaeusetechnik/product/alu-topline/alu-topline-gehaeuse/atph-1865-0250.html) might look like this: 
|
||||
(The XLR connectors might not fit at the front, but the manufacturer's technical drawing is missing the required dimension.)
|
||||
The mute button needs to be a momentary SPST (normally open) or SPDT push button, like:
|
||||
- NKK Switches UB15NBKW01N-C
|
||||
- Apem 1413NC6/ 1415NC6
|
||||
- TE Connectivity PB6B2FM3M2CAL00
|
||||
- TODO: other, less expensive options highly appreciated!
|
||||
|
||||
The casing should be a desk console (angled surface), ideally with space at the front to mount the headset ports (XLR and 6.3 mm jack), like:
|
||||
- [Bopla ATPH 1865-0250](https://www.bopla.de/gehaeusetechnik/product/alu-topline/alu-topline-gehaeuse/atph-1865-0250.html) (front might not have enough space for the connectors)
|
||||
- TODO: other options appreciated
|
||||
|
||||
A possible UI layout for the Bopla ATPH 1865-0250 might look like this:
