pingosimon Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingosimon Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingosimon Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
