    The Latest Build

    Hello, The VT999 is mentioned on this forum: https://www.freestompboxes.org/viewtopic.php?t=1140 Keep in mind that tubes do have heaters that need some power. In the VT999 the 12AX7 / ECC83 is used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12AX7 And tubes are not cheap these days...

    Overheating resistors in guitar amp

    Hello, As regulators, you could also use a LM317 tracking regulator for the positive side: The adjust to ground resistor should be 1500 Ohms for 16.8 Volts output. For the negative side, you could mirror the circuit using LM337 regulators. You should use this configuration as the input...

    Why is my LM317 current limiter circuit not working?

    Hello, As @crutschow said, check the pins of the LM317: It looks like you changed Vin and ADJ. Also have a look at the used wires. They are stranded wires, wich can split and cause shorts. For a beadboard, you can better use solid core wires. Bertus

    Why is my LM317 current limiter circuit not working?

    Hello, Is this the set-up you are using? I assume R1 is 12.5 Ohms and VR1 is a 2 kOhm pot set to 41 Ohms. The current will be about 1.25 V / (12.5 + 41)Ohm = 23.4 mA The maximum output resitor will be (19.5-3-1.25) V / 23.4 mA = 651 Ohms. The power developed in the output resistor will be...

    Help with finding equivalent Operational Amplifier from AD converter

    Hello, The C812C is the partnumber. The other code is likely a production date/number. That can vary for each batch produced. Bertus

    Boxed In- why doesn't it work when in the box

    Hello, Does the capacitor have long legs? Then you could possibly mount it on its side: Bertus

    Boxed In- why doesn't it work when in the box

    Hello, You could use some isolation between the box and PCB. You could use the plastic sheets that you can find in the supermarket between the pre-packed meat and cheese. (they will cost you nothing). Bertus

    Fixing an old car century battery charger

    Hello, As @Harald Kapp said, the pins have symbols next to them. ( I see them printed on the side of the rectifier ). The ~ pins are in inputs from the transformer. The + pin is the positive output. The - pin is not used. Bertus
