[DSP-10] U107 Voltages

Hello Jiro,

The problem comes from the level shifters on the KDSP10 board (the
PI5C3245S).  Level shifting takes time, and you see this in your o'scope
traces as sloping traces on the Serial Clock (FL2) and Serial Data (FL0).

My solution was to use an additional 74HC14 DIP and piggy back it on top of
U3 on the KDSP10 board.  Bend pins 1 through 6 and 8 through 13 pins
straight out from the package.  Be careful not to stress the pin too much as
you bend it, they may break.  Clip off the narrow part of the pin and leave
the thick part of the pin.  Allow the power (pin 14) and ground (pin 7) pins
to stay the same, hanging down.  Piggy back the 74HC14 to the top of U3 by
soldering the power (pin 14) and ground (pin 7) pins to the same on U3.
This provides power and groud to the top 74HC14.

Connect a wire from P2-4 (FL2) on the KDSP10 to pin 13 of the piggy back
74HC14.  Connect a wire from pin 12 to 11.  Connect a wire from pin 10 to
the through hole capacitor for FL2.

Connect a wire from P2-3 (FL0) on the KDSP10 to pin 1 of the piggy back
74HC14.  Connect a wire from pin 2 to 3.  Connect a wire from pin 4 to the
through hole capacitor for FL0.

I appoligize for only words to describe the above solution.  If you like, I
can take some photos and post them to a web page.

Please let us know if this helps solve your problem.

73,

- Steve, N7HPR
