Subject: caps and current

From: "binky beetlebaum" <binky_beetlebaum@...>
Date: 2001-01-01

Two things I'm wondering:
1. How can I find/figure out how much current modules are drawing?
I was thinking about setting up a small module rack & using a wall wart
ps, but I don't know how to make sure I don't overload it.

2. Why are there so many flavors of nonpolar caps? What's the functional
difference between a 1uf ceramic, polyester, polystyrene, mylar, etc.? Just
curious.
