VCF Card Troubleshooting Tips 

These troubleshooting tips assume that the VCF test tape REV 1.0 has 
been loaded into the VOYETRA. If this tape is not available, the 
suggestions will still prove useful if the theory section has been 
thoroughly understood. 

4.7.1  Step 00-02:  Resonance (Q) Tests 

These steps check that the Q control is within a specific tolerance. 
Problems may be caused by a defective SSM 2044, but the LM324 that 
derives the Q control voltage should first be suspected. Note that the four 
Q modulation outputs from the CD4052 U7 (and the four F

c

 modulation 

outputs) should all be at 0 V. Thus, Q calibration problems where Q will 
not turn off should take this into account. 
 
In steps 00 and 01 the F

c

 output controls from U6 LM324 should be 

about 2V on pins 1, 7, 9 & 14. As in any inverting opamp circuit, the 
negative inputs, pins 2, 6, 9 & 13 should be at 0 V. 
 
In step 02, pins 1, 7, 9 & 14 should have a sweeping sawtooth. Pin 13 on 
the SSM 2044 should have a sawtooth of about 50 mV

pp

4.7.2  Step 03:  DC Feedthrough Check 

Ideally, the SSM 2044 should not have any output if no audio input exists. 
However, if the IC is defective, changes in F

c

 control voltage will reflect 

onto the output even with no audio at the input. Thus, a square wave 
control signal (derived from the F

c

 mod system) is used to check for this 

feedthrough. ICs which have an output square wave leakage of greater 
than 1 V

pp

 should be rejected and replaced. 

4.7.3  Step 04-11:  Initial F

c

 and V/Oct Calibration 

These steps all check for proper F

c

 summing amp (LM324 U6) operation 

by calibrating the initial F

c

 setting, filter keyboard tracking (V/Oct) and
