Capacitor question

Caveat: I don't know beans about that area of electronics, but I can offer an idea. <br /> <br />First, if you're talking about replacing the capacitor on a board, I wouldn't, since that would void any warranty. Just changing it probably wouldn't do much anyway. <br /> <br />I'd suggest looking at Op-Amps and see if you can rig a simple amplifier that will boost your signal a little more. Op-Amps are small chips and you can probably squeeze one in somewhere. <br /> <br />For a start, take a look at: <br /> <br />http://home.cogeco.ca/~rpaisley4/BasicOpAmp.html <br /> <br />and <br /> <br />http://www.colomar.com/Shavano/intro_opamp.html <br /> <br />They'll give you some ideas you can play with. <br /> <br />Mike Tennent
