The DSP chips are located on the DSP board — see the drawings starting on page 6-<br />

52. U701 and U702 are local voltage regulators on the DSP board that derive the<br />

+3.3V supply for the DSP chips from the system digital 5V bus.<br />

Power Supply<br />

Warning! Hazardous voltages are present in the power supply when it is connected<br />

to the AC line.<br />

The power supply converts an AC line voltage input to various power sources used<br />

by the <strong>9400</strong>. To ensure lowest possible noise, four linear regulators provide 15VDC<br />

and 5VDC for the analog circuits. A switching regulator provides high current<br />

+5VDC for the digital circuits. An unregulated voltage powers the fan and feeds local<br />

regulators.<br />

The power supply circuits are straightforward and no explanation is required beyond<br />

the schematic itself. Be aware that C1, C4, C5, and C12 in the<br />

switching regulator are premium-quality low-ESR capacitors and must be<br />

replaced with equivalent types to ensure proper operation of the switching<br />

supply.<br />

The output of the power supply is monitored by the power-indicator LED circuit,<br />

which causes the power LED to flash according to a preset code to diagnose problems<br />

with the various power supplies in the <strong>9400</strong>. See step (2.B) on page 4-8.<br />
