Hi guys,
This question is regarding capacitors on an MPU board (Williams, system 6). The bill of materials states its a "Ceramic, .01mfd, 50V Capacitor" (component C63)...
First off, dumb question, these caps aren't polarized (non-electrolytic), right? I see them on the board (30 of them) but see no marking indicating polarization (they look just like glass cylinder-type zener diodes without the black band).
Second, is it ok to replace the capacitor with another cap of the same voltage but higher mfd rating? (e.g. replace mentioned cap with a .1mfd, 50V)?
I can get .1uf 50V ceramic disc cap from radioshack versus waiting for an online order. Would this be a sufficient replacement cap for this application to replace the cap mentioned above?
Thanks!
