| - | MB-MTRX is a printed board for the 8x8 modulation matrix commonly used with the MB-SID projects. This layout is in large part identical to the MB-6582 matrix layout and is really design to work with it, or any solution using the transistor-sink design found on the MB-6582. Note that the buttons share two of the LED pins because of this. | + | MB-MTRX is a printed board for the 8x8 modulation matrix commonly used with the MB-SID projects. The main board itself is just the LEDs and buttons connected to SIL headers, which can connect to DIN/DOUT modules or daughterboards. The daughterboards are for converting the board to the MB-6582 design or when using shift-registers on the other control surface boards is desired. |
| - | The board is designed with SIL headers in mind both for space and because it makes it easier to attach to the MB-6582 baseboard (or, as in my case, a jumper board that then attaches to the MB-6582). | + | You can find more information about the boards [[mb-sidr8tr:start|here]]. |

| - | **DISCLAIMER** This board has not been tested. It looks like it should work as advertised but until someone puts on together and gives it a spin, be aware of this. I cannot and will not make any guarantees to success! If in doubt, do not participate or, at least, have a look at the board layout and schematics. | + | **DISCLAIMER** These boards have not been tested.

| - | So far the cost seems to be around $15 for the boards itself assuming 25 boards. This goes down based upon time and number of boards. If people don't mind waiting over a month to get boards, the cost drops to $9.50 for 25. This is an estimate based upon a previous iteration of the board design so the costs may wiggle a bit by the time the bulk order is ready. I suspect the cost may drop ever so slightly if SMD diodes are used. | + | For 25 boards, it will be around $15, possibly less depending on any deals going on at the time and how long a turn-around time I can get. For 50 this goes down to about $8.25. This does not include shipping (just the board price). |
| + | |||
| + | I may be going with [[http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/pcb_order|these]] folks instead as the costs for a smaller run are favorable. For 20 boards, the cost will be about $10 a board. For less than that, the cost would be about $17. This is "back of the napkin" style math as I haven't yet done an official quote or anything. This option is still up in the air but thought I would share it for those on the fence about the bulk order pricing, or the next to hit 25 boards as minimum. | ||
