SparkFun Battery Babysitter - PRT-13777 - Dimension of C1

Hi there,

I am looking (again) into the babysitter. :slight_smile:

There is a reason to for C1 to be to footprint 1206-CAP?

Thx!

The capacitor that’s being used is a 1206 sized part, that’s why the footprint in use is 1206.

I got that, but why use a 1206, when the rest is 603? Why double the size?

That’s just the size we already stock so we use that rather than keeping two different parts in stock.
