On a battery-damaged reconditioned board, there are endless possibilities. The synth was working when I repaired it (for whoever you purchased it from) --

Hi, No, this issue does not apply to the original board. This could be caused by all sorts of different problems. Something you might want to check is to make

Turns out I don t have the clone board. Underneath it looks worked on, isn t signed, and I have the cross head trimmers on the topside. My problem seems to

I have a polysix that I got broken (battery leak) and I have been trying to fix. The board I had was pretty chewed up from the battery, worse than I had seen

Hi, You can easily tell if you have a clone board fitted. You¹ll find that there are six trimmer controls in the centre of the board. If they are round and

Hi Andy, You seem to be off by one mm on some of the diameters. I haven t seen any M2 anywhere on the Polysix. All of the smaller ones are M3. Here are the

Andrew; your observations go along with my theory that this is a question of the balance of the clock signals. By attaching the probe to C22 (or XTAL1 at the

Hi Malte, You are right. The problem I have had is reproducing the problem. As I said earlier this fault wouldn¹t show itself for hours on end. I finally

Andrew; I ve reverted to my previous version now (with the 10pF cap for C23) and the board has been runing fine now for several hours again. The problems with

This problem is an utter stinker! I have now had the suspect board running for almost 12 hours without a glitch. The owner was seeing consistent problem after

Andrew; a 22pF cap between T0 and ground does not cure the lockups and crashes on my machine.

Andrew; I m back to the previous configuration now (resonator, stock values) and have experienced the first lockup (which is insofar not completely correct

Andrew; I m still in the theory stage of everything. It appears that my measurements as far as amplitudes went were probably completely off. They were done
2010-09-01 by Andrew Jury
Malte, Very interesting! We certainly do have a stray capacitance issue here. When I connect my scope to T0 and watch the pulse train going into the CPU the

Food for thought: I have a datasheet for the 8048H and the 8048AH. Both contain examples for the clock circuit but both are slightly different. Both datasheets

... I don t know. My preliminary hypothesis is as follows: It s a capacitance issue. The stray capacitance between XTAL1 and XTAL2 (Pin 2 and 3) is different.
2010-09-01 by Andrew Jury
This is good progress, but I wonder why lifting IC6 kills the issue dead? I see that programmable input T0 is pin 1 and clock is 2 and 3. You don¹t suppose we

Update: A change of the value of C23 resulted in a higher amplitude of the XTAL2 signal. With this the board has been running stable for a few hours now; but

Hi Daniel, You are looking for 1 volt p-p, but VR2 does nothing and you have 3.8v p-p? Does decreasing the MG level control do anything to the output? You
