i live in the U.S. and
i have tried mouser,digikey, and newark.com
i cannot find these values for my capacitors.
i need some help.
here are the values...the catch is that i need them at 1% tolerance. they have to be some kind of film cap or mica cap or polystyrol/styroflex mylar, polyester, polypropylene.
470p
47p
39u
3.3µF
10u
100n

my problem is that there is either a minimum order of 2000 pieces which i can't afford or it just does not exist. you can find ceramics all day. but other kinds for some reason just do not exsit here in the US without a min order. please help.
 
I believe you are going to have a Very hard time finding those larger Values even at 10% tollerance.....

I suggest you Buy whatever you can get and then use your Capacitance meter to sort through them till you find the closest matched Caps....

You might be able to find some of the Values in smaller quantities for a reasonable price on E-bay.....

I recently Picked up some 4.7uf Poly caps were I live at the local shop but they were Very expensive (about $5 each) but at least they let me sort through them to find the Closest Matched Parts....

the lower Values should be easy to find but maybe not in the tollerances you specify....

Good luck
