Hi All,
I have my first of two Dynalo minis populated. I fell into the same trap as Congo with the orientation of the 680 ohm resistors, but once fixed it came up without issue. I had already checked and tweaked the on board regs.
My question is about the biasing. I started with the default recommended 422ohm and 255ohm. Then I tried adjusting the combinations as others have before, and I am summarizing what I found into a table. However, I seem to have the opposite effect to Pars, which is confusing me. I have the Liteon LED's, and +/-20V supplies.
With R1,R3 = 422ohm, R14,R29 = 255ohm: 13mA
With R1,R3 = 402ohm, R14,R29 = 255ohm: 16mA
With R1,R3 = 422ohm, R14,R29 = 240ohm: 11mA
With R1,R3 = 402ohm, R14,R29 = 240ohm: 13mA
Can someone help explain this?
