The datasheet for LM2594 recommends Panasonic HFQ capacitors or Nichicon PL capacitors. However, I believe that Panasonic HFQ capacitors were discontinued about 18 years ago. I have not been able to find the Nichicon PL series, either.
I read that the Panasonic FC series is a replacement for the HFQ series. I've also read that the Panasonic FM series is a good low-ESR capacitor.
Would either the FC series or FM series be a good choice for using with the LM2594? Is there some other series I should be looking at instead?
Thanks!
