Hey guys. I was able to finally get my simulation of the speed
control of my fullcoat deck to work correctly. I found two missing
parts that I had not included in the simulation. Also, earlier on,
Charles helped me find a couple of errors, it now works correctly.
There is no mystery on how this thing works any more. It takes a 60
Hz square wave pulse to sync from the camera (with a +12V swing). It
uses the 480Hz tuning fork with a divide by 8 circuit to produce this
same 60Hz square wave to drive the sync motor at speed.

I still have to replace the tuning fork with a crystal oscillator as
it is running at 960Hz instead of 480Hz. I like the idea of running
it on quartz to keep the start up time down, and I believe the crystal
would be more accurate. I could not crack open the tuning fork can to
fix a divide by two in the can. The actual tuning fork runs at 960 to
keep the size down, but the can is marked 480Hz, and the design of the
deck requires the output of the fork to be 480Hz. Therefore, there
has to be a divide by two in the can. This is not working, and it is
causing the motor not to run very well at all. It runs fine off of
the mains, but due to the nature of the deck, it needs to be portable,
and sync to the camera not the mains.

The circuit simulation was done in LTSpice, an awesome free circuit
simulation program. If you guys ever need to proto or reverse
engineer something without frying real hardware, it is the way to go.

Chris Maness

I suspect that some datasheets list the outputs as Q1 through Q14.

You in North America? PLL the 60Hz power supply up to 480 hz. It will
be spot on for frequency.
