Default MBOX

There are threads out there on MBOX noise problems and caps.
Putting 2,000uF,10V across the USB supply seems to near enough cure it, is
that permissable, wrt USB spcifications? nonly a measly 10uF or so there as
far as I can see.
There are 4 LDO regs MIC5205B, topmarked LBAA, 3 hold their outputs but one
varies 30mV timed with the hash variation, Putting the cap there makes a
vast improvement but not quite up to the main supply smoothing. Will try
tracing all caps to that reg and replace them.
