I'm going to send you guys the full kit....Icky wrote: 19 Nov 2018 18:40 Has anyone looked at the parts list especially the caps? Don't want to order the wrong size (footprint) as there are a few large ones in this design.
So now you are just socket stacking for the thrill of it then :)Icky wrote: 19 Nov 2018 18:19Have already raised it just now ready for the board. Nylon hex pillars to the rescue.
Also I think it might need stacking to get above my XTAL hack too. Notice Shifter in a DIL socket stacked at level one.

Indeed - :thanksyellow: Exxos you’re a :star:
That is pretty kind exxos.. think I'll shuffle over to the store and pick up one of those new red supplies.exxos wrote: 19 Nov 2018 22:13 The 3 caps in the white strip are the 3 which go around the IC as close to possible. The 4 caps on the clear strip, go on the outside pads of the IC, and the 4th is next to the shifter.
I don’t know. Came downstairs this morning and my PC PSU is dead with a little whiff about it. What is it with my power supplys.PaulJ wrote: 20 Nov 2018 00:27That is pretty kind exxos.. think I'll shuffle over to the store and pick up one of those new red supplies.exxos wrote: 19 Nov 2018 22:13 The 3 caps in the white strip are the 3 which go around the IC as close to possible.

Icky I'm not sure their for you.. only one cap as I recall.. no 100 ohm resister across the 12v's. You'd just have to standby with you spare parts and :pullhair: :pullhair: :pullhair:.
:thanksyellow: :yay2:
That sucks Icky, things usually happen in three's and that's the third supply so maybe your through the worst of it. Then again it could be sympathy smoke.. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:Icky wrote: 20 Nov 2018 07:57I don’t know. Came downstairs this morning and my PC PSU is dead with a little whiff about it.
