Re: 8642B displays A6A1 transient failure F3 when audio peaks at FM mod input
Thanks for the very informative reply, I did some additional testing and included some schematics of the A6A1 A6A2 module If I calibrate my sine wave generator (iPad) for an amplitude that is shown

Re: 8642B displays A6A1 transient failure F3 when audio peaks at FM mod input
I think what you are seeing is that in AC mode, the FM PLL is being asked to generate too large of a phase deviation which knocks the loop out of lock causing the transient error. Switching to DC

8642B displays A6A1 transient failure F3 when audio peaks at FM mod input
I found that when I I feed a higher amplitude 20 hz sine wave into the FM mod input with the coupling mode set to AC, I get a warning message stating that A6A1 has a transient failure F3. I turn down

Re: 8902A Power Supply issue
Thanks for the help everyone ¨C I ended up tracing it to what appeared to be a dry solder joint on A26K1. It was running the fan but not providing the +15V switched to the rest of the power supply.

Re: 8902A Power Supply issue
Exactly what Peter said! Running out of headroom at low line, high load and high regulator¡¯s reference is a bit shameful, so in good designs one makes sure that with everything against them,

Re: 8902A Power Supply issue
Remember that the supply must have sufficient voltage pre-regulator at the lowest line voltage and the highest load the supply was designed for. Also it must be the lowest voltage of the ripple. Peter

Re: 8902A Power Supply issue
I'd think -20 volts and +8 volts might have been a better design. Just being conservative without thinking of what they really did. Could those voltages be a result of light loads on the bulk
