Re: Legality of running a capacitor inline with roboRIO power
Putting one inline? Besides the fact it being illegal, it wouldn't work. A capacitor in-line (as in in series) with the power line would, in fact, block power from getting through (capacitors are commonly used to AC-couple, which blocks out DC power. What you would want, in this hypothetical situation, is a capacitor from power to ground. This would allow a capacitor to supplement the power rail when the supply decreases.
