CDL is planning to stock capacitors for linear S-100 power supplies. Most of them are beer can sized for the +8 rail, and quite expensive new! That's why we spent a fair bit of time reforming them and testing performance.
You could stock a pretty decent set for the *board* power supplies, those are mostly axial caps, smallish values, and radial tantalums.
Thanks, Jonathan
For the 8V rail, I typically used a 20,000 uf / 40V cap (AeroVox 2020086893). About $30.00. Have a list of recommendations for the board level repairs? Suggestions on better options for local stock for repair workshops most welcome! Martin
