Title: can a tech offer their help? Post by: rev mex on April 04, 2018, 11:23:27 AM I'm getting to the nuts and bolts of my problem. I have a request.
Testing around has brought me to IC 4023 which is in 13E. I'm visually noticing that there is a ripped off trace that once connected pin 3 and 12. Holding up a light under the board confirms that. The schematic (Service manual 1.0) says that pin 2 and 12 should be connected. Which one is correct? If you so happen to have a drumulator board open, can you let me know which one beeps continuity when touching both IC pin points? -Rev Title: Re: can a tech offer their help?

I'll have a check when I get home tonight! /Dynamikk Title: Re: can a tech offer their help? Post by: Dynamikk on April 06, 2018, 11:34:18 AM Pin 2 and 12 are connected on my PCB (just like the manual).
Where do you see the ripped trace? Under the 4023 (13E)? /Dynamikk Title: Re: can a tech offer their help?

The reason I ask is because I see evidence from the board print that there a connection from pin 2 to 13. I?m going to go back to the schematic if you?ve confirmed that it should be 2 and 12. Appreciate it. -Rev Title: Re: can a tech offer their help?

Well I learned how to upload an image. As you can see 2 is not connected to 12. 3 was connected. I?m totally confused. It sucks soldering and unsoldering. -Rev Pin 2 and 12 are connected on my PCB (just like the manual). Where do you see the ripped trace?

What kind of issue do you have with your drumulator? Still the freeze when trying to record a pattern? What PCB revision do you have? Serial number? My Drumulator works fine except when I press the Copy/End button...then the Drumulator freezes. I've just received some spare parts so I guess I'll try to get it up and running pretty soon...I hope :-) /Dynamikk Title: Re: can a tech offer their help? Post by: rev mex on April 08, 2018, 03:05:36 PM the board says - 11/30/1982
serial: 1710 at this point i cant turn it on. I'm trying to get it back on. I made things worse when i removed this IC. I'm wondering if there are other service manual version out there besides 1.0 -Rev Hmm...strange. What kind of issue do you have with your drumulator?

Post by: Dynamikk on April 09, 2018, 12:54:41 PM Hi Rev,
I just checked my PCB again and it actually beeps continuity between 2-3-12 If you look under the PCB pin 2-3 are connected with a trace, and I guess that 3-12 are connected under the 4023 on the other side of the PCB. So if you don't have a connection between 2-12 I guess the trace on that side of the PCB has been damaged. My PCB is also marked 11/30/82 /Dynamikk Title: Re: can a tech offer their help?

Can I bother you for one more pin check? Same 4023 chip (13E) pin 9 and/to pin 20 on 13K I don't get a beep but I think I should. It may be another dead trace from one point to the next. I really appreciate all the info you've given. -Rev Title: Re: can a tech offer their help? Post by: Dynamikk on April 09, 2018, 03:48:19 PM Yes, they should definitely be connected, also 13E pin 10 to 15K pin 20.
I'm glad I can help :) |
