The A185-1

2015-07-05 by karelvanbezooijen@yahoo.com

About the A185-1

Maybe it's just me using the module the wrong way.

This is the setup:

A190-1 Clock Out ---> 1st A185-1 Gate In

1st A185-1 Gate Out ---> 2nd A185-1 Gate In

2nd A185-1 Gate Out ---> Intellijel Metropolis Gate In


The Metropolis (and probably other modules too) doesn't trigger well because the gate signal is too weak. I did some measurements.

A190-1 Clock Out ------ +4.1V
1st A185-1 Gate Out --- +3.4V
2nd A185-1 Gate Out --- +2.7V

Why not keep the gate signal as say +5V?

For this purpose I build myself a simple "Gate Amp". Just an idea.

Best regards,
Karel.
