RE: Slight change in power supply cap value - problem ??

Hello,

That is what is depicted in my schematic, if you look closely. Each upper capacitor (2x100uf) is independent and the - is connected to the + of the capacitor below it. Fortunately the - terminals of both lower capacitors are connected to ground, allowing the use of a common ground dual capacitor.

In your schematic, the two capacitor segments on the right side share a ground ( - terminal) - they are the 2 halves of the 2 x 220uf capacitor. It is not possible to connect the + of one side of that capacitor to the - of the other half, because there is only one - for both capacitor sides and you already have it connected to ground. Maybe the terminology of 1/2 of 2x220 was not clear.....
