[QUOTE="Ampdog, post: 795032, member: 144"] Sticking in my nose here with advice perhaps not required: I know precision caps are available (at a price!), but I frequently notice people making up a particular value by adding caps up to a nominal <10% each of the total. Just to remind that those things have a tolerance - as has the driver! It might be a problem, but do try and somehow measure the capacitance. It might mean buying a few more than needed to get a desired value, but at least you will not be ending with something looking like a collection of lice in a dog's ear and no better than a single exact capacitor.
