[R-390] Negative temperature coefficient capacitors

Hi

The biggest issue with NTC caps is that there really is not much demand for them. Add to that the
move to SMT for just about everything. The net result is that a leaded NTC cap is sort of the rarest
of the rare. If we need them at work, it’s a massive effort to get them (and crazy long lead times).
