Re: orange drop part numbers
also, is there a standard for silver mica caps? i have a ton of them i have no clue on the values.
Re: orange drop part numbers
thanks. don't you love when you don't order from mouser and they come in one bag?
now i have them in the correct bins.
thanks

I write the values on mine with a Sharpie.
Relax. It's SUPPOSED to smoke a little.

Re: orange drop part numbers
Silver mica caps are tricky but most of mine are marked consistently. There is usually three numbers marked somewhere on the cap, these are the value code. The first two numbers are the value and the last number is the multiplier. A couple of examples should make it pretty clear. 680 would be a 68pF capacitor (68p with no zeros added). 101 would be a 100pF capacitor (10p with 1 zero added). 471 is 470pF, 102 is 1000pF (or 1nF) and so on. For smaller values (below 100pF) the value is sometimes stated directly. I have a bunch of small value caps that are labeled 18 (18pf), 33 (33pF), 47 (47pF) and so on.wsaraceni wrote:also, is there a standard for silver mica caps? i have a ton of them i have no clue on the values.
