Hy,
i got lots of Metalfilm resistors instead of carbon resistors in my delivered kit.

for example 22k and 10k resistors.

in the build guide it says to use carbon resistors.

last time i only had carbon if remember it right.

so should i use ese or buy new carbon?

thanks

Taken from MFOS site:

Metal film resistors have tighter tolerance (2%, 1% and better) and much better immunity to value drift due to temperature variation. You can always replace a 5% carbon film resistor with the same (or closest) value 1% metal film resistor and improve your circuits immunity to temperature related drift.

I used 1% metal film resistors everywhere in my Yocto. No problems except for the issues discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=206
