Capacitor values?   Message List

Re: [milton-sequencer] Capacitor values?

Sorry for the confusion. Fu and mf are the same thing. Very common
nomenclature substitutions. . Using a 'u' is a lazy man's way of doing the
greek micro sign - which i can never remember the Mac key combination for,
and m is short for 'micro'.

As far as the .01/.1 issue, there are plenty of notes on this list about
that. In short, it doesn't matter - they are bypass caps there to kill
noise. both will work.

hope this helps,

- P
