364 CODEC and Audio Fault Finding TB7100 Service Manual
© Tait Electronics Limited October 2005
Task 13 —
Check 2.3V Supply
If the CH MIC AUD signal is not as expected, the 2.3V supply needs to be 
checked.
1. If not already done, remove the 
CDC BOT can.
2. Check the voltage across C202 (see Figure 15.9):
3. If the above voltage is correct, go to Task 14
. If it is not, go to Step 4.
4. Check the soldering of R209, and check for shorts to ground at C202 
(see Figure 15.9). Repair any fault.
5. Confirm the removal of the fault and go to “Final Tasks” on 
page 123. If the repair failed or the fault could not be found, replace 
the main-board assembly and go to “Final Tasks” on page 123.
Task 14 —
Check Bias Network
If the signal at the TP503 test point is incorrect, but the other checks in the 
above tasks reveal no fault, check the bias network.
1. Remove the 
CDC TOP can.
2. Check the voltage at the junction of R229 and R232 
(see Figure 15.10):
3. If the voltage is correct, go to Step 4. If it is not, go to Step 5.
4. CODEC 1 (IC204) is faulty; replace the main-board assembly and go 
to “Final Tasks” on page 123.
5. Check the soldering of R229 and R232, and check for shorts across 
R232 (see Figure 15.10). Repair any fault.
6. Confirm the removal of the fault and go to “Final Tasks” on 
page 123. If the repair failed or the fault could not be found, replace 
the main-board assembly and go to “Final Tasks” on page 123.
voltage across C202: 3V
junction of R229 and R232: 1.5V DC
