Re: CGS051 (WRS) & CGS055 (ASM) question(s)

2016-04-18 by Ken Stone

Are those PSU voltages with the PSU under load or not? It really is a little too high for CMOS. Adjust the PSU if you can. The 0.74 drop is fine.

The pots are wired between +VE and 0V, with the wipers going to the resistors, so yes, they are for sending fixed voltages in parallel with the CV inputs.

I see, thanks Ken


I found the diode just after the +15V was dead, so that's why I had a continuity and the same voltage on the C pad

btw, my PSU delivers +15,48V on the positive rail and -15,54V on the negative. As the +14,4V only relies on the diode resistance apparently, I have +15,19 instead of +14,4 (and -0.74V instead of -0.6V). Would that be a problem for the circuit or the chips ?

Another question I had about the WRS: I don't find anything in the docs or the schematic aboutt how should I wire the pots for the inputs. Are they supposed to be simple attenuators, or sending fixed voltages in parallel with the inputs (as there a 8 of those) ?

Thanks

Philippe
