Lo-tech MIF IPC-B rev.2 PCB

The Lo-tech MIF-IPC-B is an 8-bit ISA adapter providing connectivity for Roland MPU-401 MIDI hardware to PC, PC/XT and PC/AT class hardware.

The board features user-selectable operating modes equivalent to Roland's MIF-IPC and subsequent MIF-IPC-A boards, ensuring wide system compatibility and the prospect of running daisy-chained MPU-401 devices from a single host. The board also features user-selectable IRQ and memory address options, enabling multiple cards to be used in a single system. The board is also IBM Personal Computer XT System Board Slot 8 compatible.

A standard DB25 port provides compatibility with the original Roland cables, and is positioned such that the ISA slot bracket from an IBM parallel port card can be used. The board is based on entirely on through-hole 74xx series logic so ease of home assembly.

This board can be purchased online via the TexElec Store.

Logic

ISA Bracket

The board has been designed for use with the ISA slot bracket from an IBM Personal Computer Parallel Card (1501987). The card is mounted to the bracket via the DB25 mount points.

Board Configuration

  • JP1 when closed enables IBM Personal Computer XT System Board Slot 8 compatibility. This jumper should be left open except when using the card in PC/XT slot-8.
  • JP2 Configures board IRQ. Close any ONE position (Roland default is IRQ2).
  • JP3 defines the board operating mode:
    • Open - Roland MIF-IPC-A (for PC/AT compatibility)
    • Closed - Roland MIF-IPC (for PC and PC/XT compatibility)
  • JP4 configures the IO port range used, between 300h and 370h (see table below). Roland default is 330h.
  • JP5 configures the attachment of unused pins at DB25 socket (X1).
    • Closed - Ground (per MIF-IPC-A)
    • Open - Floating (per MIF-IPC)
  • JP6 should be left open.
