kross 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2006 ya....the 317 is tough...but since it is smoking it might mean that there could be some short circuit somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kippei 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2006 (edited) One of the tan cap is toasted. Acutally a ripple cap. But my voltage is stuck at 17 v. I recon 1 of the regulator resistor is toasted as well Edited February 9, 2006 by Kippei Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squalle 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 if voltage stuck, then the resistor to set the ref voltage for the regulator is toasted but hmm, find out how that can happen short somewhere? due to wat? haha maybe some alien has gone into the case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
