Re: [vintagesynthrepair] Prophet 10 dead

I did find a chip pulling down DB4 on U311 it is a 6514 4K CMOS RAM. Thank god for IC sockets. The only problem I'm a little confused on a cross for it. It appears obsolete. It is called D444C on the chip and 6514 on schematic. Can anyone offer advice on a cross.

Subject: [vintagesynthrepair] Prophet 10 dead

Was curiouse if anyone can offer help. I bought a dead P10 no lights
or anything. The processor is good. I put logic analyzer on decoder
output and see ROM1 (Y0) and RAM (Y5)(which I believe is the scratch
pad memory)active at start up. All address buses and Data buses are
active. I am not certain the algorithm. A flow chart would be nice or
some help with what I should see at some critical points. I am
wondering if there is a chance the ROMs lost programming and how would
I know. Even if they did shouldn't lights and/or display come on. And
yes the power supplies are good.
