GSL Clone resistor question

Alright. I got all of the resisters stuffed (I think I'm going to need glasses after this). Anyways, I left out the 3M3 resister pin E and 0 at the top of the pcb, because I believe this is only used if you didn't use the 2K resister for the 1mA meter. Is this correct?

Also I can't seem to find the 8K2 resister in the stuff I bought. Could it go by another name other than 8.2K?

No. You need this resistor. Look at the schematic again.

Sorry - I simply don't understand that question..?

Well 8k2 or 8.2K

8200R maybe?? I don't think so...

If they gave it to you under some weird heading, which I believe I've seen, you can always figure it out by looking at the colors on the resistor.

Here's a guide:

That's how I usually figure it out if I've got a random resistor lying around. If you have a DMM, you could also test your resistors until you find the 8K2 resistor.

multimeter ?

THanks guys.
Another questions.
The schematic and card call for 2 x 1000uf /35v caps.
The parts lists I'm finding have 1000uf / 63v caps.
Are they interchangable?

Coldsnow,

Please read a bit more on the threads around here to find ansvers to questions like that. You'll have to do some thinking of your own! After all, that's whay DIY is all about..! :razz:

Sorry,
There is always a risk when asking questions that you are going to sound like a dumb a##. I have followed schematics before and put things together (mostly wiring 1272's into mic pre's) but that is about it. I really don't know much about theory itself. Maybe I'm in over my head. I did searches, however, and wasn't able to find the info on the 63v thing. I have a electronics book I refere to (Getting Started with Electronics) but it still pretty foreign to me. I'm assuming higher voltage values are OK but since it is part of the power supply I don't want to mess up. Is there a certain thread that would have that info in it?
Thanks

check the newbee meta:

the GSSL has +-15V tranny output voltage. After rectifying it rises a little. With that you won´t come close to 35V which is the Voltage rating of your ´lytics in the schem. If you use higher voltage rating everything is cool because they can stand an ever higher voltage. The only problem that sometimes occurs is space on the PCB since same cap-value at higher voltage needs more space.
