Some of you may be way ahead of me on this one. I ordered some Panasonic 16v 1 ufd surface mount FILM caps Monday. Arrived today, look like the Siemens stacked film and foil I use in leaded package.
I am going to stack two to get a 2 ufd coupling cap for my 5066. The sonics have to be better than the multilayer ceramics now used.
The package is 1210 so it is larger than the stock 805 type used by SI. I have used the size on a board before to mount a 4.7 ufd ceramic cap.
The part number at Digikey is PCF1132CT-ND. The Panasonic part number is ECP-U1C105MA5. They are about 50 cents each. If you search it shows a 2000 part minmum. Oder and you can order any number in multiples of 10. All these size caps are sold in 10 packs.
Mounting two of these will be a breeze compared to using a normal film cap or BG. May work out to be as good sonically.
