mintyboost giving more voltage than usual

Postby geoterrasco » Wed Dec 19, 2012 6:56 pm

hey i am working on a minty boost and when i get to the testing before soldering the usb connector i am measuring the the last to the right pin and the pin before the last to the left looking at it with the round sides pointing towards me just as in the picture from the tutorial, what i get for that is 4.92 volts and im supposed to be getting 2 volts. so is that ok? should i continue with the soldering of the usb connector?

If you post photos of the front and back of the board and indicate which points you are measuring these voltages on it will help diagnose any problem.
