Help with 8.5v rail

Help with 8.5v rail

2009-03-26 by mborish_2000

A few months ago, I accidentally shorted the 8.5v rail to ground while calibrating VR723. (I know, I'm an idiot.)   Common sense told me to take out TR709, check it and replace.  I replaced TR709 with a TIP31C as well as IC722 and still have the same problem on the output: 3 volts and some change.  I Removed the lead and get about 7.8 volts with the PSU unloaded and a little bit less with a 1M ohm load.  The metal oxide resistor reads about 8/10 of an ohm in circuit.

I was wondering if anybody could post what some of the voltages are in their CS-80 PSU for me.  It would be nice if I could have the voltages from TR711, TR710, D713 and IC722

Hi 
 

I would replace the tip31 and instead use a BD324

You mean a BD234 or 2sd234 right?  Thanks for responding Kent.  I'm going to give it a shot.  On another note, do you sell extraction springs for the ribbon controller?

Hi i ad a similar problem with a minimoog , it was the zener refence zener diode , i think on the cs-80 it is the d715 , it is thermaly insulated . Look if this zener is not open or shorted . On the mini ps the diode didnt seem bad , but this was the problem ..  I hope it will help ..  here is the picture ...    http://www.flickr.com/photos/31603983@N05/3387453213/

Re: Help with 8.5v rail

I don't think that that is the problem.  I'm getting 22 volts off of the rails and a voltage drop of 15 volts across the zener.  I would think that that 820 would go out if it was shorted.  Oh, I'm getting a 1.2v or 1.8v drop across the 820 ohm resistor.  (I didn't look at the board layout to see exactly which one is which)

Thanks for the response.
