Title: NomNom 2014 not phasing
Post by: Berger on May 29, 2019, 05:13:45 PM
I finally got around to getting the NomNom v2014 built. I fired it up and it passes sound but there is no phasing. I have the default diode in there and haven't tried the 4.7v Zener that is suggested in the doc.

I'm using a quad set of 2N5952 from Guitarpcb that I had gotten a while back.

Here are the voltages I am seeing

Source Voltage - 8.9v

TL074
1 - 4.10v
2 - 4.10v
3 - 4.10v
4 - 8.10v
5 - 4.10v
6 - 4.10v
7 - 4.10v
8 - 4.09v
9 - 4.09v
10 - 4.09v
11 - 0v
12 - 4.10v
13 - 4.10v
14 - 4.09v

TL072
1 - 4.09v
2 - 4.09v
3 - 3.90v
4 - 0v
5 - varied
6 - varied
7 - varied
8 - 8.10v

When I hook up the led the lfo looks to be working and it varies with the spd knob

Q1 - 2n5087
e - 4.10
b - 3.55
c - 2.45

Q2-Q5 - 2n5952
g-4.10
s-4.09
d-3.40

They are all reading the same give or take a hundredth of a volt. The voltages look odd to me, but I'm not sure why. I have a working smoothie that I haven't tried reading voltages from yet...

I have some 2n5457 that I am working on matching and will try those later.

Any suggestions? Sometime fresh eyes help...

Thanks for any help!

A lot of the soldering on the backside, you can see a lot of the eyelets, especially on the chips.

Yeah, after looking at the pics, I'll be re-flowing some solder joints tonight.

Thanks!

I actually take pics when I'm troubleshooting and can't figure it out. Helps a great deal.

I reflowed all the joints and we have phasing!
I also got a set of 2n5457 matched as I thought that was maybe the issue. So good to know my matcher works as well.

Thanks for the extra set of eyes!

Wooohooo! Congrats! I often take pictures of builds when troubleshooting, it helps for sure.
