Bad resistors
in [Design]

From: Jan Panteltje on 22 Jun 2010 17:51 Got 10 resistors on tape marked 2M7. Used one, circuit did not work right. Took some testing ... before I measured the resistors. Of the 10 several are 620 k and not 2M7. Bought from www.voti.nl, so beware. All are marked with the right color code for 2M7. New to me :-)

Sure you didn't hold the resistors while measuring? -- Failure does not prove something is impossible, failure simply indicates you are not using the right tools... nico(a)nctdevpuntnl (punt=.) --------------------------------------------------------------

LOL, no I know about that one :-) I was so suprized I measured them 3 times, and then again a little later. |
