I am trying to install a additional parts to my car. when i remove the bare PCB with lcd from the head unit. i accidentally grounded the circuit board to the Metal plate, it create a little spark. now the LCD doesn’t work.

my question are
1. is the circuit board fried?
2. could it be just a blown fuse?
3. after ground the board, could it be just burn resistor?

Soldering a LED to a circuit board?

Im going to changing all the lights in my car to LEDs. I will be using 3mm and 5mm leds, and will have to add a 470ohm resistor to each led.

Now my question is when I solder the led, I solder the led on, then I solder the the resistor to the positive side of the led after the solder joint.

So pretty much is would be LED, Resistor, solder joint, circuit board.

Did that make any sense?

Thanks all.

Electronic Principles DC Circuit help!?

(P1) Use dc circuit theorems to solve one circuit problem using Thevenin’s theorem, one using Norton’s theorem and one using the Maximum Power Transfer theorem.

(a) In the following circuit use Thevenin’s theorem to determine the current in the 1.6 ohm resistor

1a picture

(b) Apply Norton’s theorem to the circuit below to find the current in the 20 ohm resistor

1b  picture

(c) Using the Maximum Power Transfer theorem determine the value of R in the circuit below in order that maximum power is transferred to it from the rest of the circuit

1c picture

if you can only answer one that is great any help is really appreciated.

i was trying to circuit bend my omnichord, i touched the board in one place and lost the strumming sound and the chord sounds..the drums still work so i’m sure it’s just a cap or a resistor that’s fried…will a volt meter do me any good in finding the burnt component?

the closest standard resistor values?

i'm solving electronic homework ,and i got the values R1=66.67
R2=12.4k
(and Rs=10 ,RL=1k are given),there is part in the question which want me to chose the closet values for the resistor before i design the circuit in pspice program.
can u tell me how i can chose from the given appendix below

Preferred resistance values (approximately 10% increase)

I1.01.52.23.34.76.8
II1.11.62.43.65.17.5
III1.21.82.73.95.68.2
IV1.32.03.04.36.29.1

I to IV for (+-)5% tolerance resistors
I and III for (+-)10% tolerance resistors
I for (+-)20% tolerance resistors

Values multiplied by 1, 10, 100, 1k, 10k, 100k, 1M, 10M
Multiplier 10 to 100k can cover all the preferred values
E.g. 11, 110, 1.1k, 11k, 110k

Resistor types: Carbon film, metal film, wirewound
i think this will be clear

I(1.0)(1.5)(2.2)(3.3)(4.7)6.8)
II(1.1)(1.6)(2.4)(3.6)(5.1)(7.5)
III(1.2)(1.8)(2.7(3.9)(5.6)(8.2)
IV(1.3)(2.0)(3.0)(4.3)(6.2)(9.1)
