Soundlinc PCB Top Side

Soundlinc is an embedded DSP sound board for use in high-end model railroad trains. This product has an 8 megabit FLASH for storage of real sampled train sounds, a D/A converter, a 5 watt audio amplifier, and a low voltage switching power supply. Soundlinc is capable of playing multiple sounds back in real-time while seamlessly mixing them together giving a level a realism higher then any competitive product. Keithco's RF transmitter is used to control these sounds.

Programming of the FLASH memory is performed in-circuit using the DSP's JTAG interface. To help make programming and configuration a simple task, a Windows™ based utility was developed.

 
Soundlinc Composer Programming Utility

This product's hardware circuit design, firmware (real-time embedded DSP software), and the Windows™ programming utility were all developed by the principal engineer of Frank Design.
