DB54 - 2254 style compressor {update 22.10.19}

[Brian Roth]

The highest voltage anywhere in a 2254 will be 24 Volts from the power supply. The voltages in that section of the BA185 will be a tiny fraction of that.

Good point Migs 31!

Thanks Brian, I will get the ones you mentioned for the second kit I have.

Hi everyone,

I have a question on the BA191 pcb build; According to the BOM C14 is 5uf/25V electrolytic capacitor in radial configuration, but I can only find 4.7uf/25V in radial. I did find 5uf/25V in axial configuration. What do you think? Which one should I use?

And thanks Migs, I definitely am having fun!

if height/size is ok do you have enough leads on the axial to just mount them vertically? I've done it before with some heat shrink added to the leads

Thanks for your reply Scott. So I assume that you are saying there would be an advantage to using the 5uf over the 4.7uf. Is my assumption correct?

I'm not familiar with this project. I'm pretty sure 4.7uf caps were available when this project was realized .. Couldn't tell you why they wouldn't use them. Maybe someone familiar with this will have an answer. Seems like pretty tight tolerance....
