Title: Fat Pants Parts
Post by: PaxWorks on July 13, 2011, 05:46:52 PM
I'm getting al the parts together to build a fat pants. What is an 470r ressitor? Could it possibly be listed as 470k on pedal parts plus?

Negative, you just want 470 ohms for that.  470k is 470,000 ohms.

I need help finding the Cap on Pedal Parts Plus. I have a hard time understanding the symbols-N as well as UF. On Small Bear there not even listed as uf or N just mf?

Quick question. So using the link you gave me, 220pf is 0.22uf?

220p would be 0.000220uf and 0.22nf

You were looking at 220nF which is .22uF

This might help you with the conversion. Remember your moving the decimal point 3 spaces to convert between uf-nf-pf.  :)

I'm confused? The PDF for the Fatpants list C1 as 220pf?

Where are you ordering from?  I can post a link to the correct part.  Most places list the lower values as p values, but a few do not.  

Heres the link from pedal parts plus. I beleive they only have that value in silver mica.  That will be a good
choice, but more pricey than ceramic or film.

Yes you are correct.
