Ok, please go easy on me, this is my first post here!
I'm no good at electronics, but i have a passion for microcontrollers. I've been busy programming a Propeller lately. I have been powering it with two LR6 batteries giving ~3V. The propeller should be powered with 3,3V. I have various kinds of unregulated power supplys, but how do i make it 3,3v? For instance, one of the walwarts with a switchable voltage is supposed to give 3V, but when i measure it is always way higher than that, maybe 5+V.
I'm at a standstill right now, because, although the prop accepts 2.98V, as my batteries give as i write this, it only does so running at rather slow clockfreq's, 6-12MHz, and i need it to run at 96 MHz...
What are my options?
