5nf capacitor for Moonn Schwurbel

[drgonzo1969]

I’m having trouble finding the 5nf capacitor for the moonn schwurbel. I’ve checked tayda, small bear. Anyone built this one or know where to get 5nf caps?

You might be just as lucky to test a handful of 4.7n or 5.6n and see how close you get.

Look for something close. 5600pf mlcc.
Get 3. One will be real close.

good call. thanks for advice. i think i may have both on hand

You can always combine a couple, too.

I do this more often than I like to admit

I feel like I’ve been doing at least one every build lately.

Yes, but are you guys combining in parallel or in series?



BTW @drgonzo1969 , in case you didn't already know :

Parallel caps SUM ——————————— 2n2 + 2n7 = 4n9
Series caps... well, use this online calc. — 10nF >10nF = 5nF


Of if you like aggravating your brain:

Yep, and it’s the opposite for resistors.

Here’s what I use:

Conversion Calculator Series and Parallel Capacitor | DigiKey

Calculate the total series and parallel capacitance of a circuit using DigiKey's Series and Parallel Capacitor calculator.

Haha you read my mind. I was gonna ask about this. Great info. I appreciate it
