Fuel gauge wiring question

Yes my IVR is a homemade deal and not a product by RTS. With a little basic electronics knowledge and soldering prowess you too can make your own

Yes the schematic shows 2 grounding points on my IVR schematic one ground point is on the mounting/heatsink tab, the other is one of the pins on the semiconductor chip. Always consult the pin out on the semiconductor chip bag for correct input, output, and ground pin location on the chip.

As a side note the NTE960 is designed to take up to 35V DC input and convert it to 5.5V DC output. Running 13V through it is nowhere near its maximum duty cycle. This chip should last for years and years.

Use a capacitor between 5 and 100uF and a voltage rating of 15V or more.
