Parts ID

I've ordered a few boards and panels (OK, I admit it: I ordered almost
everything), and I'm planning the parts shopping. In the BOM that Paul
kindly posted, some of the caps are identified as "yellow box" caps.
Any idea who makes these? And what are they, anyway - ceramic,
polyester, what?

Thansk for the help.

And there it is... Bah. I have that page bookmarked, too, but I missed it.

The given Mouser PN no longer exists. I *think* this is a likely
substitute: 581-BF014E0102JDC
<http://www.mouser.com/search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=BF014E0102JDCvirtualkey58110000virtualkey581-BF014E0102JDC>
This, 581-BQ014E0102J
<http://www.mouser.com/search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=BQ014E0102J--virtualkey58110000virtualkey581-BQ014E0102J>,
is less than half as expensive, and is lead free. A quick pass at the
datasheet indicates that the main differences are RoHS and packaging -
the more expensive version appears to be taped for auto-insertion.

Thanks Steve!

I recently got some of the 581-BQ series caps. These are yellow box
types. I bought the 'D' line, which are 63V. The 'E' are 100V. The
63V is fine for synthesizer use.
