Ceramic capacitors 

Electrolytic caps are installed 
later, their values are left blank 
on the chart below. 

The numbers on the small MLCC
(Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors) 
can be hard to read. A 
magnifying glass is 
recommended.  You don't want to
mix up the values, as that could 
lead to problems not easily 
found.
