Ah yes! These are the ones used mostly for keeping transients away from the
DC outputs of the mux. Tolerance is not critical here so the types you
mention should suffice. BTW the 'K' ML talks about is the tolerance value,
which in this case is 10% and yes, 4 7 3 is 47 with 3 zeros pF, which is
0.047uF as stated!
Bye for now,
