Cranky Charles v1.1

[BlackCatChicago]

Hi all,

I’m getting ready to put together a Cranky Charles and while reviewing the build doc, I noticed it’s referencing the v1.0 and the PCB I got is v1.1. The only differences I could find was C7 and C8 are the same value in both versions but looks like v1.0 are polarized and v1.1 are not. Am I correct? And if so, does that mean I should use the caps with the same value for v1.1 but just non- polarized ones?

 

Thanks,

Bruce

Yes you would just use the same value Bruce

It looks from the v1 silkscreen that you could use either electrolytic or film caps

You can use film or MLCC capacitors just remember  film types can get pretty big over 100v voltage rating
