Weak Power Regulator?

Open ThWoell opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Experimenting with the Board I had to find out that the 5V Regulator on the Board is a little weak in Voltage and also sensitive to noisy Input power. Measured Voltage 4.8V (with 12 V input from adjustable Workbench PSU)on the dc select INT pin The board will boot most of the time, but sometimes not. When a Hotend fan comes in, wired parallel to the Board, things get worse: Now it will not boot again; just when you hit the reset button it will start the boot sequence. So if you experience similar problems, please check for the voltage. Since there is no wiring diagram, it is quite a task to find out which regulator on the board will supply what. Setting dc select to USB the Board boots every time without flaws (measured Voltage 5.1V)

It work fine for me - the board boots every time. I am using 12 Volt computer PSU.
