Variation in usable capacitor ratings?
Hi everyone,
I've been upgrading a simple power supply in a satellite receiver using a kit provided by a company selling spares. I've noticed that there's quite a bit of difference between the original capacitor values and the upgraded replacements provided, for instance Old New 47uF, 35V 100uF, 35V 2200uF, 10V 2200uF, 16V 330uF, 16V 470uF, 35 etc My querstion is: do the upgraded capacitors only work together as a set or can any one of them be replaced with the upgraded value? In the latter case, a follow-up quesion would be how much variation in capacitor value is permissible (presumably as long as it's higher)? |
