@Gregozor2121 Here its kinda the same.
Instructor: Go read these documents about how to measure stuff. While I am not there to explain it to you. Y'all learn more if you find it out yourself! -
To be honest, it took me like minutes on google to figure this shit out. You know what the problem is imo? Trusting that the school is going to give you endless supplies of these, or that It's not a problem to fry them when you bought them cheap... When I bought my first breadboard and ICs I would have to wait till tomorrow to buy new ones and that's only if I found time and energy to visit the store again! So I had to be fucking careful about how I approach learning electronics! You just can't force these things, some people just don't have the motivation and respect to learn this -_-
When your classmates are such lobotomites, that they manage to fry 11 fucking IC's within a day! And I am the one who has to find and replace all the broken stuff. FFS it says 9V right there on the board NOT 12V! No, your board should not draw 1.7AMPS! This chip is getting kinda hot. What is wrong? ONE OF YOUR FUCKING PROBES IS BRIDGING ONE OF THE PINS!
Why isnt this working correctly? You adjusted the wrong fucking potentiometer!
I know I have far more experience than most of my classmates, but man, atleast try to not break things by just thinking: "I dont know dis. (Its actually written in the docs!) So imma assume it will be fine if I do dis. It wasnt fine!"
Also IF something doesnt work, DO NOT TURN UP THE VOLTAGE ON THE CIRCUIT BECAUSE IT APPEARS TO BE THE CLOSEST POSSIBLE ERROR. Which in most cases it is not!
