Quoted from JT-Pinball:Well got most of the Valid Power Detector in. Wound up putting a couple capacitors in other circuits just because it was convenient because I had them out. I’ll try to post pics later. My build sheet calls for a 2K 1/2 watt resistor at R113 and R16. I only have 2.2k 1/2 watt so ordered 2k 1/2 watt. My schematic are from Xenon and they do not show 1/2 watt there. Got 2 k 1/4 watt. Got a few parts board and few working MPU sitting here and they all have 1/4 watt. This some upgrade or just the build sheet I have?
2.2K 1/2W for both R113 and R16 is fine. You want even values for a 50% divide. 2.2K will be close enough, but less precise and bonus of using less energy.
you want half watt resistors because at 2K the resistors would be using about 0.22w which is too close to a 1/4w rating. If the resistors do start to burn open they can go in a way that ends up killing u14 with over voltage.
For ease and speed of assembly it works best for me to stuff parts smallest to biggest and them in steps by component type. Stuff all the caps then solder them. Stuff all the resistors then solder them. Then the diodes, etc...
