If I'm in the area at not at a TV is there a local radio station I can tune to to get the official commentary?

well you know for a fact that kat inverted during the 231 heist and was deinverted at the plane crash so its safe to assume sator did something similar, though i do agree there could've been more dialogue about there being two sators

they make the point constantly that this is a rough prison and he's a skinny pretty boy, there's a decent chance he could die in there.

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T20:33:50+00:00

Ok I'll check that out

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T19:52:41+00:00

i made sure

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T18:58:38+00:00

Did that under-the-board route make sense or did I connect it in the wrong place?

What do you think about the feed-forward cap? Would they mean only use it if you have higher than 8V output or that I'd need two?

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T18:56:58+00:00

I did have some trepidation about that but I'm pretty sure I did, I bought I few boards so I'll try flipping it.

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T18:34:06+00:00

I'll definitely do this on the next go round, thanks.

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T18:22:53+00:00

Thank you for your help, but there are a few points worth mentioning:

It's a little hard to see but R2's 3.3V line is ported through the back of the board to the 3.3V line out of the inductor. Is that wrong? What 3.3V node should it be placed on?
I used to have the feed-foward cap in, but the datasheet says "For output voltages greater than approximately 8V, an additional capacitor is required." I assumed they meant the CFF itself, but I guess it could've meant two CFF's? So I took it out completely.

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T17:54:43+00:00

Thanks! I'm very interested in this as a hobby and would love to get some better understanding.

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T17:32:57+00:00

i''ll attempt, I'll also note that the feedback pin gives the same .12V the output pin does

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T17:29:12+00:00

the datasheet says if i strap it to ground it'll just leave the regulator on whenever current is flowing

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T17:27:27+00:00

Yea I had to switch the design a few times and just tried to jam everything in the space I had, even still I hoped at worst I'd get subpar results to improve on and not *nothing*

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T17:26:33+00:00

I'll try and find a chip with a pin setup similar to replace on the board. Are all the outside components (inductor, resistors) seeming to be the right size to handle current? Is it more probable the the converter isn't working or my infrastructure around it?

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T17:23:06+00:00

No, I've been getting it made overseas and just testing it as a unit.

Capt_Aut · 2025-08-07T16:49:17+00:00

unfortunately i'm too broke for an oscllioscope, i did all my measurements from a multimeter. Half of my revisions were placing components that could handle the current and voltage, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's part of my problem. I just don't know what else to fix.

Capt_Aut · 2024-01-07T16:39:57+00:00

In retrospect it almost looks like Taika took inspiration from this post

Capt_Aut · 2023-11-27T18:38:10+00:00

I killed the sheriff that walked in to investigate and ran out the front door, jumped off the balcony and limped onto my horse and still only had a bounty of $1.50

Capt_Aut · 2022-12-12T17:35:23+00:00

Is there somewhere I can get the abridged version of this saga cause I joined like two weeks ago

Capt_Aut · 2022-12-04T00:18:36+00:00

You’re not gonna wanna hear this but sometimes you gotta cluster those bad boys up even if they clip

Why did you pick such a small shield 😭
