TUTO: How to get a Full Yocto v1.0 Kit

Discuss Yocto construction and related issues
  • got the same few months back, had no problems.
  • Thanks for the listing and updates brock0791.
  • Vr1 potentiometer A503 from kit is to small why :( :?:
  • I'm not sure why it's that size, but with some minor bending of the leads and careful alignment it works just fine.
  • Looking at the BOM, there's a handful of 630V and 250V film capacitors. I only have 100V caps at the moment and trying not to order a few parts from Mouser... I'm assuming there never is anything near this high in the circuit - maybe a result of part substitution?

    Can anyone confirm that 100V is fine? Thanks!
  • The higher rated caps are probably film caps. Ensure you are using the right kind of capacitor at each location. Most electrolytic caps are polarized while film caps are bi-polar. Substituting leads to magic smoke or circuit not behaving correctly.

    If they are the right type then 100V in this build is fine.
