Capacitor Variety Pack – 6 Values (100nF to 470uF) | 30 Pieces
Capacitor Variety Pack
This capacitor variety pack delivers six of the most frequently used capacitance values in both ceramic and electrolytic types. With five units of each value, it covers decoupling, filtering, timing, and energy storage needs right on your workbench. A practical starter set that eliminates hunting for single caps mid-project.

What You Can Build With This
- Power supply smoothing and ripple filtering
- Decoupling for microcontrollers like Arduino UNO, Nano, and ESP32
- 555 timer circuits (astable, monostable) and RC oscillators
- Audio coupling/bypass networks and simple tone controls
Compatibility
All capacitors use radial through‑hole leads and fit standard 2.54mm breadboards. The ceramic caps are non‑polarized; electrolytics require correct polarity. Works with any 3.3V–12V prototyping board including Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and STM32. Pairs naturally with solderless breadboard supplies and power modules.
Wiring Notes
Electrolytic capacitors have a marked negative stripe—connect this to ground. Use a 100nF ceramic capacitor across the power pins of every IC to suppress noise. Keep lead length short for high‑frequency circuits.
Why Buy from Compoden
Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.
Is this compatible with Arduino Uno?
Yes, these capacitors work perfectly with Arduino Uno. Place a 100nF ceramic cap between VCC and GND close to the microcontroller for decoupling, or use the 100μF electrolytic to smooth the 5V rail from the USB power.
How do I identify the capacitance value?
Ceramic capacitors show a 3‑digit code: 104 = 100nF, 105 = 1μF. Electrolytics print the value directly on the sleeve. A quick guide is included in the pack.
Can I use these for high‑frequency switching regulators?
The ceramic caps handle low‑ESR duties well for small breadboard regulators. For high‑frequency (>1MHz) switching, choose caps rated for the specific ripple current; this pack is intended for general‑purpose prototyping, not production‑grade supplies.
