Default Another quick capacitor question...

Hi all,

Need some quick advice regarding caps for my project... The circuit requires a 150v 100mfd cap but i do not have any on hand. I do, however have several 150v 33mfd caps on hand. I wanted to parallel THREE of the 33mfd caps which would equate to a 150v 99mfd capacitor. My question is: should this be ok? I'm not sure how accurate, on average, the capacitance range has to be for proper functioning. If it is off by 1mfd should it in theory make any difference at all?

Thanks!

-Brian

Your three in parallel should work fine.
