Capacitor Sizes

Post by N5DGK »

Dan,

I've got most of the components ordered for the interface. One question, are the 2 one-microfarad capacitors ceramic, surface-mount, or electrolytic? I can't find ceramic capacitors that size and I'm not good at soldering surface-mount components.

Thanks for this great project and for the FT-817 RXTX software.

Hi Brook,

You can use standard 100nF ceramic or multistrat capactiors (non-electrolytic).
I'm using surface mount ones for a smaller device.

Good luck,
