Interference?

Post by Lollipop » Mon Jan 05, 2015 7:59 pm

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows why I might be getting this kind of problem. It looks a little bit too extreme to just be normal interference. I'm wondering if it might be my regulators because it occasionally doesn't happen (usually after I mess around with a regulator).

That looks fairly severe, I'd re-check your major voltages and make sure nothing is shorting out.

Thanks for the reply emu, that makes a bit more sense because it would be strange that interference only effects the bottom half of the screen ...
and also I forgot the mention that as far as I can tell the problem get's worse the longer I turn on the cube would that happen for a short?

Check to make sure there aren't any crazy heat issues happening.

Hey thanks for the help guys I just figured out my problem. Basically my problem was the 1.8v line came loose. The reason why the problem was fixed when I adjusted the regulators was due to me pulling the regulators out to inspect them and in the process shifted the 1.8v wire into a more stable position.

@master - haha yeah but these are different forums so :P (this post was pretty much copied and pasted too haha)

At least you kept both sides of the conversation updated :)
