Страница 5: ...Capacitors 1nF 1uF are MKT Wima SMF which ever you prefer unless stated otherwise in the sheet 4 Capacitors 1u and bigger are Electrolytic and rated 25V unless stated otherwise in the sheet 5 SW1 and SW4 buffers can best be miniature PCB mounted DPDT on on switches 6 SW2 onboard diode selection is normally a DIP 2 If the sheet says jump you need to short both poles like this 7 SW3 Boost is a stand...
