Motivation

With this module you can distribute the incoming gate or trigger up to eight outputs. The distribution is software driven. You can select the amount of the stepped through outputs from zero to eight with a potentiometer and an input control voltage. The potentiometer voltage and the control voltage are added together. The mode potentiometer and the mode control voltage selects the algorithm for the distribution. As for the moment (2025 Jan.) only one mode is implemented. Stepping upwards loop. Any suggestions or programs are welcome.
