Hi b.y.o.c. ,the C5 100uF electrolitic capacitor,is in reverse direction in to the pcb!
The negative pin of C5 goes to -9,the positive pin goes to ground,in to the pcb is wrong!
The schematics is exact,ok?

Davide

The cap is reversed because it is in the negative voltage rail of the power supply.

Ok but then either the schematic is wrong or the pcb is wrong?

In to pcb,the negative pins of C4 e C5 is linked!

It appears that the error is on the PCB. I just e-mailed Keith to let him know.

Not catching this error before is partially my fault. In my personal build I have C5 installed backwards to how it is labeled on the PCB. I must have forgotten to bring it to Keith’s attention when I was mapping out the PCB’s parts.

Yes, the schematics is right, wrong is the print on the pcb and all the pictures of the circuit in the pdf document, where you see the C5 turned upside down.
Give me confirmation that this is so?
Thank you!
