- 7805 regulator source? - 2 Updates
- Swollen battery in Samsung Tablet - 3 Updates
Jake T <jaketbone@steak.com>: Jan 08 07:07AM -0500 The 7805 in one of my regulated supplies has failed. I was just going to order one of the cheapest ones off of eBay. Most likely, this would be a Chinese clone. Might this be a problem down the road, or should I order a better brand and what are your suggestions? Thanks. |

Thanks. a) A princely $0.65 from Digi-Key. b) Might this be a problem down the road? Three possible answers in the most likely-to-occur order: - Yes, but not right away. So you will be making the same repair multiple times. - Yes, but in such a way as to cause additional cascade failures - so you are putting the device at-risk. - No. In fewer words: Don't be stupid.

Good news for me: I contacted Samsung and they were very concerned about the swollen battery. Apparently a smaller Samsung tablet had similar problems which caused damage both to the unit and surroundings. They are sending me a box to return the unit for free repair. |
