What about switching to tantalums? I can fit the EIA 3216 (1206-sized) parts in that slot, allowing a 10uF 16v tant instead of the 22uf 16v (or 10uF 25v) ceramic. Maybe I should find a spot on the back of the board for an electrolytic :-P Or I could buy a handful of each part type and keep experimenting :-) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
