These look very good.

One small step ...

Andy (Silverdog) sent me a few of the new Minipulse Plus REV-B boards, and they arrived today.
They look good ... and now I just need the time to build one and write the documentation.
So please be patient. We're slowly getting there.

Thanks for the tip, I'll place my order in a day or two.

The REV-B design is different to the REV-A, so I would hold fire on ordering any components until I publish the final schematic and parts list.

Very cool, looking forward to getting one to build...

thanks for the update..

Just to let everyone know, Silverdog placed an order for the REV-B boards on Tuesday. From past experience I expect these will take just over 2 weeks to arrive. The plan is to build one unit, and write the documentation during the build.
More later ...

I've just sent the Gerber files to Silverdog.

There is no external meter. Why would you want that anyway?

Just asking, sometimes it could be more sensitive than audio.

[Qiaozhi]

Me too. Exemplary design.

Qiaozhi you say that there is now only one on-board trimmer. What sort of outer controls are foreseen for Minipulse now?

Are there outer meter (something like VU-meter) provided?

The external controls are Audio (which sets the threshold) and Reject (which sets the sample delay).
Apart from that, there's the On-Off switch (can be incorporated as part of the Audio control), headphone socket, and coil connector.

The only component that may receive a bit of TLC could be the large electrolytic capacitor, as there is no room to bend it on a side ... unless the test point pin is omitted.
