Samarium C20 Value Mislabeled on PCB Silk Screen?

[kolson842]

Hey all,

I'm putting together a Samarium Distortion (HM-3) and noticed a discrepancy between the value screen printed on the PCB (1uF) and the value listed in the documentation and on the schematic (10uF). I want to verify the 10uF is the correct value before I solder, and also make this potential issue known to others.

C20 is labeled as 1uF on the PCB (top left):


But both the documentation and schematic indicate that C20 should be 10uF:

Thanks in advance for your help!

Interesting.

Give me just a bit to see what's going on there.

Thanks! I also just noticed that C21 is labeled as 10uF on the PCB silkscreen but as 1uF in the documentation and schematic.

Perhaps those are backwards?

Yes, that's exactly what happened.

This was corrected back in July but it looks like my first batch of boards with incorrect silkscreen didn't get trashed.

You are correct, C20 should be 10uF, C21 should be 1uF.

Perfect! Thanks a ton for the quick response and info!
