A small board, a modest supply, and you need a clean DC rail without the hum. This 100 µF, 16 VDC low-ESR cap from Jaycar slots in as a local smoothing or bypass element where a big bulk cap is overkill. Polarised—positive terminal must always read above negative—so confirm polarity before you commit the solder. It carries 340 mA rms ripple current at 105 °C / 100 kHz, enough for low-to-mid current regulator inputs and small signal conditioning stages. Impedance is 0.22 Ω max (20 °C, 100 kHz). Low D.C. leakage means it won't warm up the board around it. Radial leads on standard pitch fit most through-hole footprints without trimming. Add to cart and it's dispatched from an Australian warehouse
