Leaving few tips for those who want to build this brutal marvel.<br /><br />-The grounding fill of the pcb is correct, but in practical home standards it became tricky, becouse it's super easy to make bridges when soldering. A bit of flux helps a lot.<br /><br />- The lenght of the wires of the potentiometers are critical, to me it generated at ~ 500Hz annoying frequency, that only went out when I change the wires for shielded stereo ones. And still, the noise can apears!<br /><br />- In my country (Brazil-Curitiba) I cant find the exact part numbers to build the exact project. But I tested some commun components here, and the results were spectacular! Here it goes:<br /><br />-> Diodes: 1n4148<br />-> Transistors: Q1 = npn BC549B (hfe ~ 350) Q2 = pnp BC328<br />-> Low pass capacitor: that goes between the two 560k = 3n3F<br />-> Feedback resistors: replaced each 560k for 470k<br />-> Input resitor: replaced the 2k for 1k5<br />-> Vref Voltage Dividers: replaced the two 100k for 56k (IC's pin 3 and 6)<br />-> IC = TL072<br />-> Volume Potenciometer 100k Log<br />-> Connect the chassis to ground (negative from supply)<br /><br />I made the board twice, the first time I was too impatient, and my board didnt do anything but whistling or not sounding. Lot of problems with the glossy after doing the thermal transfer, and many white hairs trying to fix the bridges ...<br /><br />The second time, after breadbording the schematics, and verify that it realy works! I made the thermal transfer and the secret was put the hot board direct in the freezer, 2min later the toner was in the copper and the glossy in the paper. Success!<br /><br />So, one by one, soldered each component with flux liquid, super carefully, installing all in to a 1590B Hammond.<br /><br />All in place, its time to test this machine! And after a bit of 500Hz when potenciometer at 9am or less, I moved the internal wires a bit, and now sounds like a pro!<br /><br />Super worthy project! Allways recomended!Pedro_Marizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00690779330980806281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481402030233340127.post-9298413397237908282018-07-11T13:22:20.121-04:002018-07-11T13:22:20.121-04:00I'm having problems here too...I'm having problems here too...Pedro_Marizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00690779330980806281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481402030233340127.post-41799446132460559402018-06-11T13:13:40.084-04:002018-06-11T13:13:40.084-04:00it is not verified yet?? mine does not workit is not verified yet?? mine does not workestivenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16192921459013521720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481402030233340127.post-15541507576713701342017-06-24T11:55:15.775-04:002017-06-24T11:55:15.775-04:00That should be fine.
