Re: CGS 87 outputs

Yes, that zener is on an output, and was a poorly thought-out modification. My version addresses that weakness by protecting the zener with a resistor.

Thanks Ken, good to know (I remember blowing my DUSG zener by accidentally sending 15V to it, but it was probably into one output)


It was also to conform with the Serge "standards" of 0-5 V for the sequencers, but maybe it's not that important, and just a matter of habit.


So, not sure I'll do it, but just in case, would the voltage divider do the trick you think ? Any drawback to this ?


Thanks
