(...) The BDX34 transistor + toroidal inductor above + LM339 comparator probably compose a switching regulator efficiently converting 13V input power to 4.5V for the outputs. Philo (18 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

I've taken some more detailed pictures of the circuit and the reverse side. (URL) through the manual, connections 6 and 7 are for sensors and connections 0-5 are for output (4V as labled on the cover), but you only can turn the circuit on or off. (...)

(...) Hi Dustin, I am an EE. Before I give you some advice, I need a bit more information about 9750 (I have never seen one in person): - I see a power jack: I assume this powers the electronic circuit, not the loads, right? What voltage is applied (...) (18 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

(...) Wow - I remember those, we used them at school. Now why is it that Peeron do not have an entry for it under 9750? Those are also some big old capacitors, I would be inclined to check out their ESR (a rating of their health if you like) before (...) (18 years ago, 8-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

(...) I am not an EE either but I can see at least 2 things that look like voltage regulators. (18 years ago, 7-Apr-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
