The Great Search: Jellybean 10uF Ceramic Capacitors #TheGreatSearch #DigiKey #Adafruit @DigiKey @adafruit
(Video) We go through literally millions of our ‘jellybean’ 10uF caps – more specifically 10uF 16V 0805 X5R 10% ceramic capacitors. There can be dozens on every board we make, they’re great for an extra bulk capacitor, alongside your 1uF or 0.1uF higher-frequency friends.
They’re also a ton smaller than electrolytic caps! We’ll look for some options you can use, my recommended voltage ratings and package sizes, what ‘X5R’ and ‘Y5V’ means, and when you should NOT use MLCCs!
Don’t forget, #DigiWish is happening right now on social media. Make sure to pick out something in stock from the DigiKey catalog and post up up every day – one person is selected each day to get their wish as a gift!
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
