I used to repair CRTs on RS422 terminals a loooong time ago so I am very familiar with the high voltages from the CRT and the capacitors. I have an improvised 'discharge' device I made last year and it has served me well with many loud pops... going straight to ground and NOT though me. hahaha! No worries, I only use high quality capacitors on my Commodore equipment.. Panasonic, Vishay, TDK, Nichicon, etc. Funny thing is that the last capacitor that popped on my 1902 was a ceramic. I'm going to make that circuit I linked in my previous e-mail and see how it goes. If it goes well, I might just have a PCB made. I just installed KiCad. :) I was just curious if any of you had done any work on a device to have the Commodore equipment output HDMI. Thanks again! Thanks, /RajReceived on 2018-07-18 05:00:05
