Capacitor question

[stevie1556]

I've got a slight issue. I want to build up a new board that I've got, and on the power input there is a 47u cap to ground, and me being silly and not keeping my stash levels up, has run out of them. Can I substitute it for a 100u cap without any issues. Obviously there is a difference in what the values do, but if someone wouldn't mind explaining them, that would be great.

Perfectly fine substitution - probably even better.

Awesome, cheers for that. I've subbed the cap for 100u, and now I'm awaiting for another part to arrive for it anyway. Was really hoping to get this board tested, as it's a stacked booster.
