console schematic sheets, 270593, for the following information.
The bass module provides un-regulated power V_UNREG to console via connector J100 pins 1
and 2 [sheet 10, B2]. The power supply electronics are comprised of 4 main sections; switching
power supplies, linear power supplies, power supply synchronization, and power fail detection.
The console’s input voltage, V_UNREG, comes from the bass module and is nominally 26VDC.
This voltage varies with load and line levels, but is limited to 31.5V maximum (assuming line
voltage of 140V AC). This voltage is always present whenever the bass module is plugged into
the wall and so the console’s power supplies are likewise active. All the voltage level source are
listed in following table:
Note:
The 1.8V and 3.3V linear regulators are derived from the +5V switching power supply.
The 9V linear regulator is derived from the +12V switching power supply.
