Twistedquarters Galaga switcher kit

Why not rebuild the original power supply? There's like 8 components on it.

I've always heard about problems with an audio hum when using a switcher with Galaga.
 
Im down with that. Just seems pricey. Seems the switcher would be easier. I would leave everything alone so it could be fixed later if ambition strikes

I use a switcher to test the boards and play a game or two to make certain the boards work. You will get some stray ac (wavy) lines in the picture but will work until your replacement parts for the supply arrive.

I do like the original supply for these boards much better.
 
Do i need to use the giant screw terminal .02 fared cap mouser stocks or can i use 2 smaller ones?

You really need to watch them part numbers. They got me parts I can NOT use at all.

If the 2 smaller ones add up to .02 and the voltage is the same then yes but I wouldn't do that.

post a link so others with parts and part numbers can look at it. I have been burned with part numbers before so it is best to have others look at em.
 
Yeah i looked up values. I just got back from checking voltages and Im real close. At about 4.60v. I have some hot spots still tho and would like to show you guys. On my phone now but will post when i get home in a few
