KLM 376A LFO is HFO

KLM 376A LFO is HFO

2015-12-17 by hblomman@yahoo.com

Hi everybody.


I just recently acquired a Korg PolySix. 

The CPU-board was severely corroded from battery leakage and almost nothing worked the way it should. 


I decided to populate a KLM367A replacement and all seem to work the way it should minus the MG/LFO.


Where I should have a 50Hz triangle wave, I actually have a 400+kHz butt-crack-wave. See the attached picture. 


Any suggestions?

You checked the PCB bugs section on jeds site?

Today I also disovered that the PWM modulation signal is affected, this is in the range of 800kHz, where it should be 20hHz.

Problem solved!

R15 is resistance-net of 5 10kohm resistors. Somehow I received a 3x10 in pairs resistance-net!

Took the original out of the board and now it works like it should!
