I can not follow this tread to it's originator, but:
I had a sub-assembly fail a week or two ago and the problem was a 39 k Ohm 2
Watt resistor (one
of two) had burned it's self DOWN to 30.09 OHMS and the increased current burnt
up a 470 Ohm at 2
Watt resistor. The other 39 k Ohm 2 Watt resistor was not so effected.
The 39 k Ohm 2 Watt resistors and a 1 k Ohm 1/2 Watt resistor (for each)
drop (+ and -) 170 Volt
supplies (divide by 40) into a comparator (each) and detect power supply
failures.
In operation since May 2002.
