I am using this circuit- VCO 555 Circuit
when I plug a 9 volt battery in its fine, but when I plug a 9 Volt DC converter, at 850mA the IC gets hot and burns out.
This doesnt make sense to me as the way I understand it parts draw only the amperage they need, but here it seems to be the amperage burning my IC out. I am asking why this is happening, and if there is a way to avoid it?
what im thinking is that the diode might be pulling amperage and is overheating the IC, but I dont really know.
Note: I am using a different diode, it says RI03, MIC on the side of it, and it looks like it would be slightly bigger than the 1N4007 diode.
