Just a quick follow up. Did it with a 5V circuit and it worked like a charm. Had about 10 or so 10uF caps in parallel but we got the job done. Again thank you so much! This even impressed the head electronics guy!One thing I forgot.
The capacitor size is also determined by the rise-time of the power.
A slow rise will require a larger capacitor.
Do you know how fast the power voltage rises when turned on?
