Re: black gates in parallel

I couldn't find an ESR spec for the polypropylene I use, so I wouldn't count on a shunt polypropylene cap to lower ESR as Eddy says.

I was thinking of overall power supply performance and the use of smaller caps. Some claim that using many smaller caps gives a 'faster', more transient (in the ability to deliver current at higher frequencies) response. If that is the only criteria, then a shunt polypropylene cap may work better.

Kind Regards,
Robert Karl Stonjek
