Operational Notes:

This small app is for easily determining the capacitance value of any capacitors that you
may have on hand by entering the code written on the cap surface.

Using this program:

To "read" a capacitor code, enter the code using the spin buttons and push the Calculate button. The entered code plus the capacitance in microfarads, picofarads and nanofarads
will be displayed.

Use the first two spin buttons to set the initial two code digits from your capacitor.
If there are three digits then enter the third digit in the third spin button control.
example:  10 pF = 1 0 0  ,  100 pF = 1 0 1   etc.

The tolerance value is set using the drop-down combobox and is displayed automatically.
Tolerances that specify +/- pF values are generally used on capacitors that are 10
pF or less.

This app should do all practical standard value capacitors.

BUG FIXES:

JAN 20,199---KE6RS spots a bug: 104 = 0.1 but 105 = 10.0uF. Checked the code
and there were one too many zeros in the  (5) multiplyer. 
Problem fixed 105 = 1.0 uF now, thanks Ron.

Jan 26, 1999---New icon added.

July 2, 1999---Conversion bug fixed.

We welcome any suggestions or bug reports.
