there is a 36 Ohm 1/4 watt resistor ( orng blu blk gold )

IC, what is reason to use this setup and could it be another
mistake made by previous repairer ?

It creates an RC low-pass filter to smooth out the power even
more
than just a capacitor can do. I do something similar on chips
that
are especially sensitive to supply ripple.

thanks for reply,

so is there any magic with the 36 Ohm value anf 32.6 Volts?
could i use 30 Ohm or 47 Ohm resistor or other value ?

thanks again,
