I am new to the whole break down of electronic devices and am taking apart a radar detector, and am wondering if anyone could tell me which parts are what such as a voltage regulator? I will upload the pic if you can assist me. Thanks.
What does it say on U603, which is in the upper right hand corner? I suspect this is the regulator and that D301 may be the "idiot diode". There may be parts on the other side of the PCB that may be worth looking at too.
I know. I'm interested in U603 which is the object Andy1845c just described.
On silkscreens, the letter U at the start of an ID refers to an IC. D a diode, C a capacitor, Q a transistor, etc.
