pingosimon Posted December 13, 2009 Report Posted December 13, 2009 Thank Wilba he's got a bunch of pictures of his correctly assembled baseboard! Maybe put a clarification on the parts list or construction guide?
pingosimon Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Posted December 13, 2009 I'm measuring 13V at J25, when it should be 9-11V. I have not finished populating the base board yet, just the resistors, IC sockets, and PSU section. Is this a big enough problem to go back and troubleshoot? All the rest of the voltages check perfectly.
Wilba Posted December 13, 2009 Report Posted December 13, 2009 No that's normal if there's no load... that's the input going into the 7809 voltage regulator. Once there's load, you'll see this drop to 11V.
pingosimon Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Posted December 14, 2009 haha, I could've sworn I put that in a new topic in the troubleshooting forum. Thanks! I'm getting super excited...just need to populate the rest of the board.
