Those of us who try to design circuits have mostly been raised with the mantra of:
"0.1uF ceramic and a 10uF/47uF electrolytic should be used for most devices".
In many cases, I see my customers (pro audio and consumer manufacturers) using mostly 0.1uF only, then a few large caps on the board as "reservoirs".
My question is this:
Could you replace the elctrolytic with a large value ceramic?
If you did so, would you still need the 0.1uF?
My gut says yes - I.e you coudl replace a 10uF 'lytic with an equivelent ceramic.
However, I think you'd still need the 0.1uF.
Thoughts?
