Hi Everyone,
My Global Specialties 6000 frequency counter counter died on me, it powers up, but does not count.
I wonder if anyone has a manual/schematics and could guide me through the repair. I looked around and found no documentation available.
The counter itself was made around the '80s, and it uses an LS7031 counter/driver chip, National MM5369 based time base, and a bunch of CMOS glue logic. The first two digits of the counter are implemented off the LSI chip for speed, in this case two chips of dual J-K flip-flops,
74S112, and a 74LS90. The signal gets through the input stage, but the J-K flip-flops are already not counting. I would really appreciate if someone could help me out with the schematics, it would save me reverse engineering the circuit.Thanks for listening, Peter
