Bricolo said:What exactly are these caps doing?
Salut , Bricolo!
These capacitors are for smoothing the ripple caused by the periodic switching of currents in the chip..in the seven most significant bits and are externally connected.
At frequency that the DAC work i see no need to go for more that the capacity that philips give in the data sheet..
Au revoir!
Bricolo said:I'm looking for inexpensive ones to use for that, something that costs less than 1$ per cap.

Peter Daniel said:It actually says ERO on those caps and number is MKT1818. You might also try Wima MKP series, but they are bigger.
The local store here has only Wima MKS2, 3€ each :/
and the Wima MKP cost 2€, but not at the local store, I would have to order them.
I can have others here:
