Default does it makes sense to use electrolytic can as bypass cap ?

In article ,


says...
it is a VFD display *driver* IC, 32 bit shift reg with

latches.
VCC1 5-12 V to power the IC and the VCC2 is the controlled
voltage 0-60V ( 40 mA) which drives an the VFD display.

So i can replace the 36 ohm (it is fried) with anything close

and
probably should choose one on the higher side (i.e. 47 Ohm

over
the 22 Ohm) ?


Figure out why it fried, fix the problem, replace with same
value unless you have a compelling reason to change it.


think there was a shorted connection between 32 v and ground and
i think that is what fried the resistor ??
a bad solder joint bridged to ground track

i do not have a 36 Ohm but i have 22 and 47 and so i figured i
should err on higher side (the 47 Ohm)

thanks for the help,

What about two 22 ohm Rs in parallel, then in series with one other (that
is assuming you have a number)?
