Engineering CONFIDENTIAL VETTA Theory of Operation M.D. / G.S December 20, 2001 - The * sign next to a control signal name indicates that this control is active low The Vetta Combo electronic circuitry is distributed across 8 PCBs: - Vetta Power supply PCB - Vetta Main PCB - Vetta Power amplifier PCB - Vetta U.I. (User Interface) Left PCB - Vetta U.I.
An inductor can store energy while an ideal transformer transfers energy but does not store it. We won’t buck tradition so we’ll call it a flyback transformer). The basic operation is to apply the input voltage across T2-A by turning on Q3, 15. Energy is stored in T2 and all of the secondary diodes are reverse biased. When Q3, 15 turn off, the stored energy is transferred to the outputs. As the voltage fly’s back, the secondary diodes are forward biased.
In addition the Z_SELECT signal controls the voltage feedback circuit and allows to select one of two sets for DC output values: On connector J6 to On connector J2 to the Power Amp the Main PCB + LO - LO –HI +20V -20V PS_Valid +8V If Z_SELECT is set at +15V +32 -32 -36 +18 -18 +20 +8 If Z_SELECT is set at 0V (or floating) +45 -45 -50 +18 -18 +30 +8 This feature is used to adjust the voltage rail of the power amps (+LO and – LO) in function of the speaker impedance that they currently drive.
While the main power is turned ON, the 3.3V supply the SRAM U29. When the main power is OFF the SRAM supply is maintained (to avoid memory lost) by the battery BAT2 voltage. The battery voltage should be above 2.7V. If it drops below the battery should be replaced. The current draw on the battery, while the main power is OFF, should be less than 3.7 micro amps. This will correspond to a maximum voltage of 100mV across R185.
VETTA Theory of Operation………………Line 6 confidential …………………………….
Audio system: On the Main PCB: There are four independent audio circuits on the main PCB. The only audio connection between them is through the DSP signal path. Guitar input (Page 7 of 8 of Main PCB schematics): The guitar input is first buffered and amplified on the Guitar Input PCB before it reaches the Main PCB at connector J26 (15Vpp @ 5Vpp at the guitar jack).
Diodes D3/D4 and D5/D11 protect the op amp U10 from overdriving and electrostatic discharges. R44/R170 and R43/R169 attenuate the FX Return signal from the maximum specified 20Vpp to 5Vpp. R44 and R43 also protect the input of the CODEC ADC in case the voltage would exceed +/-2.5V. C14 and C15 allow the signal to be DC biased at +2.5V by the ADC input. D8/D7 and D10/D9 are not installed on the PCB. The ADC output of CODEC U16 feed DSP#2.
VETTA Theory of Operation………………Line 6 confidential …………………………….
Clock system: Except when the digital I/O option board is used (currently not available), all the clocks are contained within the Main PCB. There are two master clocks: CLK_30 (30MHz) and CLK_40 (40MHz). The crystal oscillator Y3 generates the CLK_30 clock. Its only purpose is to set the execution speed of the two Sharc DSP U35 and U36. The crystal oscillator Y1 generates the CLK_40 clock. It has a number of distinct functions: 1).
VETTA Theory of Operation………………Line 6 confidential …………………………….
Bus system: DSP #1 U35 and #2 U36 share a common 32 bit wide data bus named DSP_DATA[00:31] and a 24 bit wide address bus named DSP_ADDR[00:23]. These buses allow for communication between the DSPs and with the SDRAM. The SDRAM can be configured either with two 1Meg. by 16 ICs (U37 and U38) or two 4 Meg. by 16 ICs (U39 and U40). The current Main board is stuffed with U37 and U38 (1Meg.) (U39 and U40 are not installed on the PCB).
VETTA Theory of Operation………………Line 6 confidential …………………………….
I/O system: The following Input and Output (I/O) signals control the VETTA operations GUITAR_IN_SENSE This input signal is generated on the Guitar Input PCB and read on the Main PCB by an I/O pin of DSP #1. It is high when a jack is plugged in the guitar input and low otherwise.
Z-SELECT status reading (CURRENTLY UNUSED) The status of the Z_SELECT signal can be read by the microprocessor U27 through the circuit made of Q6 and Q9 (page 8 of 8 of the Main PCB). The reading is done in two paths. - First the BDN-DDATA3 line is read while the Option_Sel_3* line is held low. This first reading brings bit 0 of the Z_Select status. - The BDN-DDATA3 line is read again while the Option_Sel_3* line is held high. This second reading brings bit 1 of the Z_Select status.
POWERAMP_MUTE * This output signal is generated by an I/O pin of DSP #1. When low it mutes the power amps. It is kept low from the start up of the firmware until all DSP code is downloaded and running, all memory is cleared, and the +/- 15DEL (delayed +/- 15 V supplies) are up. This last item takes about 2 seconds from the time the AC power is turned ON. The POWERAMP_MUTE* signal is combined with the PS_VALID signal (see power supply PCB) by D16, R175 and R174 (page 6 of 8 of the Main PCB).
temperature (GRAPHICLCD_TEMP line). This voltage is digitized by the U.I. ADC U10 (page 2 of 3) and read by the main PCB microprocessor.
U.I. LEDs: All of the U.I. LEDs (except the LCD’s backlight LEDs) are multiplexed in a 15 row by 5column matrix. The rows of the matrix are driven by U4, U3 and the associated 16 buffer transistors. The columns of the matrix are directly driven by U9. The multiplexing cycle is about 10ms long. The matrix driver circuit resides on the Left U.I. PCB (page 3 of 3 of left U.I. PCB). U.I. Switches and encoders: All of the U.I. switches are read in a 5 by 7 matrix.

Engineering Vetta and FBX Service Hints If the PS_VALID line is inadvertently short-circuited, D15 on the power supply will almost certainly fail. This will keep the audio from appearing on the Direct Outputs, and possibly on the speaker outputs. If the main FETs (Q3 & Q15) on the power supply are shorted, a series of components will most likely fail. Replace R21, R7, R55, R49, R12, R11, R15, D4, Q3, Q15, Q11, Q2, and U2.
If the DC bias voltage at the input pin 25, 24, 4, or 5 of the guitar input ADC U19 is significantly off from its nominal value of 2.5V (less than 1.8V or more than 3.2V), the part is probably bad. The same is true for Pin 22,23, 20 or 21 of the DAC U20 and U21, and for pin 17,16,20,19,23,24,26, or 25 of the CODEC U16. When troubleshooting the amp PCB by itself, you can power just the +/-15V rails and check almost the entire audio path.
Vetta Self Test Procedure These tests should be used to confirm a customer complaint or as a final test at the completion of a repair. Failure of any of these tests may indicate a problem within that section’s underlying circuit and not just a failure of the surface component. In these cases, further troubleshooting in the failing circuit should be performed. 1. Hold down Reverb Button while powering the unit up.
All 16 blocks on the small left LCD should fill. Press GATE once to advance to Test #5. 5. Graphic LCD Test #5 Press COMP button to start test. The large right LCD should fill and then clear. A vertical line will run from right to left on the right LCD. Then a horizontal line will run from bottom to top. Press GATE to advance to test #6 6.Encoder Test #6 Press the COMP button to start test Rotate all 7 black encoder knobs.
10. & 11. Currently these are empty tests. Press GATE to advance past these tests. 12.InitDefaults? This is not an actual test routine but is used for resetting amp model and effects parameter defaults back to what was originally loaded in via flash. This is useful if a user has customized one or more of his or her amp models or effects and decides he or she wants to go back to the defaults loaded during the last flash update.
Vetta Software Upgrade Procedure The Vetta’s software is upgraded via a Midi SysEx data dump to the Vetta’s Flash memory; there is no replaceable EPROM. To perform an upgrade to Vetta, you will need either a Midi data filer or a computer with Midi SysEx software as well as the new software code and a standard Midi cable (or joystick-to-midi cable). New code can also be imported from another Vetta.
