Hi bwack The capacitor you removed to make room for resistors, what was the function of that capacitor? Regards sfk

This one ?

*   Support lower Vth on Q1. Resistor divider R7 and R8.
*    Remove C1 to make room for resistor divider.

This is the PDF of v2.3 https://github.com/bwack/C64-Saver-bwack/blob/f3cd1549b32b5a40bd19ed1b33fe1eb53d38a0f0/C64%20Saver%202/C64Saver2.pdf

I think I ment to say removed C2 not C1. I think it was there to stabilize the gate of the NMOS transistor, but a capacitor there together with a resistor divider would slow down the reaction time.

Yep must be C2 :) Ok thank you very much for the answer.

Thanks for letting me know :)
