These parts are known as a good source of many troubles. They were put there for fear of something, but indeed we should fear these very parts. I guess this makes sense for English speakers, too. (This is not to say that paralleling different values of SMD caps may make sense in some cases, but one should be knowing what one is doing...) | |
