In regards to ceramics, Monolythic caps I favor the most.

Hi Andy,



Any similar thoughts on capacitors? There are so many types out there, the

cheapest being the little ceramic discs. Would it hurt to use a more

expensive cap of different material in its place if capacitance is the same

and voltage requirements were met, and it's non-polarized?

Hi,



There is no problem with this. However, 5% carbon film resistors are general

less expensive because of their lower tolerance. Try and stick to the spec

if you can, but never use a lower tolerance component where a higher is

specified! I.e. 5% instead of a 1%, etc



Cheers,

Andy
