So I know I've posted about this a few times in the past year but in my off time I a have been systematically trying to figure out why I am getting a clock leak in the audio path on my primetime. I've ruled out the analog daughterboard (replaced all the ic's), all the tantalum and electrolytic caps, and the clock and vco circuit. I'm thinking it must be a bad chip somewhere on the motherboard leaking into ground. My question is, can I buy some sort of chip testing device to analyze these guys based on some sort of preloaded profile or should I just start systematically replacing them chip by chip? Anybody have a better suggestion? This is pretty much my last resort.
