I have an IN-12 VFD clock I assembled from a kit a few years ago. Recently after a loss of ac power to my home the clock circuit would overheat and shut down the clock. There are 2ea MC34063A ICs in the circuit that get very hot. If I set the brightness of the IV-12 display tubes to half the circuit runs cooler. After removing all tubes voltages test OK. As I plug in each tube the Mc34063A ICs get warmer and warmer as additional tubes are plugged in until the ICs are too hot to touch. Can you assist? Thank you
