Can you replace ceramic or tantalum capacitors with aluminum electrolytic capacitors?
I have a question about the hookup for my 12VDC to 5VDC step down module - the K7805JT-500R3.
It states in the datasheet that ceramic capacitors are what can be used but it also states that tantalum ...

Can you replace electrolytic capacitors with tantalum ones?
Due to size constraints on a custom PCB, I have opted out for using the smallest type of electrolytic capacitors (3 mm diameter.) However, capacitors in such a small diameter are almost impossible to ...

I have a height problem (with my switching regulator on a height constrained PCB)
I was planning to use this part (datasheet) (basically MC34063 with thermal shutdown,) but I don´t have enough room above the PCB.
I need to keep the components under 2.2mm.
According to my ...

MAX682 with electrolytic capacitors
In a new design I would like to use the MAX682. In the datasheet I found this typical operating circuit:
I would like to use it exactly like that except that I'm going to pull /SKIP to GND.
In table ...
