Weird things with lm3886 (brainGT-kit) - Click HERE for Original Thread
michielbeijer
I just finished (at least that's what I thought I did..) an lm3886 BrianGT kit, but when I powered up I measured some strange values.
First of all, the power supply board makes 28VDC from 22VAC. Not exactly the 1.4 factor I was expecting.
Next, when I measured the DC offset, it was huge: about 1.6V on one channel and 1.7V on the other and the chips get very hot after running for some minutes without any load.

Any advice?
:xeye:

Sorry, already took it apart. I've had it with those really stiff solid core silverized-copper (?) wires. Had to solder the - hard to reach - connections with the pcb's mounted in the case, that was just asking for bad connections.. Now I'll give it a go with some multi stranded wire and report back when I'm finished.

Done! Now with DC offset 0.5 and 0.3 mV (not accounting for deviation of my 15 euro multimeter ;) ). There was probably some shortage going on :headbash:
