Hello! I am an electronics newbie, and I was wondering where I could find a capacitor found at http://www.mitedu.freeserve.co.uk/Circuits/Alarm/radiowavealm.htm . It says I need a 4 nano farad capacitor. Could someone give me the URL of say a mouser catalog item that's 4 nano farads? I have mis ordered twice. I always order this useless surface-mount capacitors. Can someone give me the catalog item or # for one with leads that's ceramic? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!!!!!! Sincerely, Apollo_CAP
Err..it sez 4pF, *not* 4nF. The closest value leaded *ceramic* capacitors i could find in the Mouser catalog #614 were: 1) Page 405, 80-CK05BX100K (10pF @ 200V, radial) and 80-C410C100J1G (10pF @ 100V, axial). 2) Page 408, 539-CK05100K (10pF @ 200V, radial) and 539-GP550 (5pF @ 100V, radial). 3) Page 412, 10pF @ 50V and 100V, radial. 4) "Exact" value on Page 413, 75-10TCCV39 (3.9pF @ 100V, radial). 5) Page 416, 4.7pF @ 50V to 500V, radial; see Pg 417 for ammo pack and tape packaging. 6) Page 418, two 10pF @ 50V, axial and radial. Be advised that capacitors with mica and plastic insulation are also available; just look further in the catalog, starting on page 424.
