I am brand new to the electronics world. I have set up a home station for working on small scale electronics, i.e. soldering stating, antistatic mat and strap, etc.. I have read some basic electronics books and decided to attempt my first small project, assembling a Dual-Output Adjustable Linear Regulated Power Supply from Jameco.
I of course screwed it up. I switched the positive and negative regulators and turned the unit on. The LED comes on but I get crazy voltage signals on the DMI when I test. I did remove the regulators and put them in the correct positions but get the same result. I assume I fried the regulators.
Can I fix this problem by installing new regulators or have I fried the entire thing?
Thanks in advance,
Todd
