Tantalum capacitor package size for Color Classic
Posted by: elemenoh on 2019-06-28 08:39:40 I need to recap a few Color Classics and am going to try switching to tantalum caps. What package size would fit best on the existing pads? These seem to all be the same size: 6 - 47µf - 16V 2 - 100µf - 6.3V This one is a lot smaller: 1 - 10µf - 16V
