It should. The other thing to check is ripple: if you're getting enough to make a ceramic sing, the ripple current might be a problem for Ta. Check the ripple voltage and frequency across the cap and use the resistance and capacitance ratings to deduce a current. > > > _______________________________________________ > geda-user mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user John Doty Noqsi Aerospace, Ltd. http://www.noqsi.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
