I can't find my docs for the Lag PCBs I have, but I have Harry's circuit diagram for help. I powered it up last night and it did some really strange stuff. Looking at the backside, I realized there should be some decoupling caps on the back... oops...
Question #1 - would the absence of those 4 decoupling caps cause the 10uF electrolytic caps to get quite hot?
Question #2 - I have a 4.7uF Tant cap where a mylar is suggested. Are Tant caps polarized? (one lead is longer than the other, but there are no +/- labels) Should a Tant cap work OK here?
thanks a bunch for any help,
Drew
