Electric OU: TK-Akula 3V Inverter/Mosfet Stage Testing

One of the many Akula circuits, under construction. Testing the “output” stage which consists of one of the six inverters in the 4069 and the mosfet it is driving. I’m using the FG to inject the 269 Hz signal that normally would be coming from the transformator/DCDC converter part of the circuit, because I am still lacking the MC34063A chip and a couple other components on that side.
Already interesting behavior is seen…. and I think it’s because the chip and mosfet are underdriven. Supplying 3 volts to the inverter chip and a 2 or 3 volt signal to the inverter input from the FG…. is a very weird drive situation.
