As for combining parts. Resistors add in series where as capacitors add in parallel. For capacitors in series its like the following: 1/ (1/c1 + 1/c2 + ... ) to calculate the effective capacitance. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
