A general question on capacitors and placement on PCBs.
If a board design is such that the capacitor is close to the heat sink and therefore susceptible to failure through overheating, what is the disadvantage of running a wire away from the heat sink to another cooler place to mount the capacitor? Would this cause a problem in the circuit.
