ok...i see...
i just hoped it would work...

is it also cause 3207 workes with 9V?
i've read the pork barrel pdf and that gave hope...if i could design a new layout would it be possible?

hello there people!
i've searched everywhere in the forum, and couldn't find anything that could help me.

i was wantering what should i change in rustbucket schematic/board in order to make it work with the more available 3207 chips.

i've made a small clone using 3207 in place of 3007, but in rustbucket i have no clue how i could do that.

thanks

yeap that's what i thought...thanks mate...i guess i'll wait for the 1054..

would this beast work with a 7660s voltage doubler? or the amps will not be enough? i think i know the answer, but i would like a second opinion. i'm out of 1054 so...
thanks anyway

thanks guys!
you caught it m-Kresol! that was the only mistake on the layout, and i found it out while i was soldering that resistor! i forgot to update the layout.
now it's done!

you can find pics of my build here

nevermind! consider this verified. i 've changed all ics and transistors and now it works!yeaaahhhh!!!!
i guess something gone bad yesterday and burned an ic or something, but today with fresh eyes i made it! the whole projekt took me at about 8 hours building and 20 debugging...

hi there guys.
i love veroboards. and i wanted to make the rust bucket with just a single 13700 chip
i drew and build this

first of all i am an experienced vero builder and layout drawer.

my problem here is the power supply. i tried a laptops 19V power supply, and i blew up a regulator(on breadboard).
so i tried this board as a power supply daughter board, using a lt1054 and a 9V one spot power supply.

when i measured the voltages on the daughter board before connecting it on the main board, i was able to get +17/0/-17V.
but when i connected it on the board, i was getting +10/0/-2,5V
the lt1054 got a bit hot too.
i desoldered the supply board to check if it still works, and it does without any problems.
there are no unwanted bridges anywhere,mostly between the supply rails.
got any ideas?
