Terminating cheapo SCA -> 50Pin SCSI adapters

Yeah i'm gonna take the risk

That happened to me aswell, a few days ago i was looking at 500 10uf 16v ceramics for ~£6, yesterday i went to grab them and they where gone.

I have bought a few items on Alibaba, and always had a good experience, so far. However, they are a marketplace, not a department store, so who knows how well they police their participants.

At the low currents you're dealing with, even if the Vregs are fakes, as long as there is a Vreg in the package and not just empty packages, you're probably okay. They might be rated for a little lower power or have a slower response time, but as long as they hold 2.85V closely, you're probably okay.

A slightly modified PCB using the proper voltage regulator setup (this was harder that i thought it would be, had to swap a few parts for their SMT equivs)[attachment=0]Screen Shot 2014-02-05 at 22.11.58.png[/attachment]

I'll order these once i have confirmed the boards i have ordered work
