5n caps

[icecycle66]

I've been looking in all the normal places and I'm not seeing them.

Where are you guys getting 5n caps?

Personally, I'm using 4.7nF caps and assuming that there's a resistor I can alter somewhere to result in the same frequency cutoff.

Did you check Mouser?

[icecycle66]

Yeah, but they all have a really big tolerance or are relatively expensive.
I was hoping to get a little stash of tight tolerances.

I think the problem is that it's an obsolete value that was never much used in the US to begin with.

One could sort through their 3n3's and 1n5's and find two caps that get closer to a 5n than most 5n's will. I had to do a similar same thing to get a 3n9 for a tone stack. 3.8 IIRC and I don't think they make them that tight usually.
Don't mind the 100k's... small mistake at Tayda.

Just use 4n7. It's really not that far off.
