K8016 not working

squares, but not at all pins, this is how pin 9 of IC10 looks like:

There should be square on all the address pins.
The frequency on some pins is very high !
You may do the test at 10Hz range.
Set the frequency to 4.9000Hz and test again all the address pins.

At 490Hz please check the generator output waveform. - Is it very bad?

nice squares at all pins.

At 490Hz there is similar sine to the first pic I’ve posted. Very bad, practically no waveform is at 1kHz

I’ve also made a short video. This is generator output at 490Hz.

This test will show the whole memory content in every cycle of the waveform:
Select 1k range.
Set the frequency to 100Hz.

Please post the oscilloscope picture (one or two cycles displayed on the screen).

this is 100Hz on output:

Your video and this picture show that most of the RAM is OK.
Most probably you have to purchase a new RAM.

The original RAM is 32Kx8. The speed is 15ns.

okay,
I will try to find another RAM. Thank you for your helping and time!

seems it works! Tried with another PC, now I think I can get correct waveform.

Looks good :slight_smile:
It was a PC issue anyhow !

yes it seems that was some LPT problems again or what…
I will now do some tests, but it seems everything works. Also offset calibration.

Thank you for your hard work again!

No problem.
I’m happy that you found a solution and everything seems to work now!
