Paragon cap pitches

[themaninthesuitcase]

I plan on making a Paragon using half decent components where I can possibly get them, rather than my usual cheapest part possible approach, so would like to avoid double ordering.

I need to make a part order for something else and I don't have the board yet so can some one possibly give me the capacitor pitches for the box caps and also for the electrolytics so I can get the ball rolling on those? The box size might be useful as well it that's handy.

Thanks.

If it doesn’t specify otherwise the box caps should be 5mm lead spacing. Electros are usually 2mm lead spacing by 5mm diameter.

Just make sure to keep the box caps under 100 volts and the electros under 63 or else they are just bigger in general. But if you go by the spacing you won’t really need to worry about that.

That’s what it looked like eyeballing them against stuff I know the size of but I didn’t want to order a bunch of branded caps only to get it wrong.

Thanks.

Follow up question: For the C11 100uF cap is 16V sufficient? It looks like it should be fine from the schematic unless I've missed that VREF is not 9V but I'm not well versed on charge pump circuits.

I haven’t built this one but you should be able to get a 25 or 35v cap in the same dimensions just to be safe.
