Max31865 Amplifier Tutorial
Hello, I purchased the Max31865 Amplifier and I am following the tutorial that is on the Adafruit website for it I have a question about the circuit configuration. Every wire is accounted for except for this yellow connector (see image attached) and was wondering what this component is.

That is a small capacitor, intended to reduce electrical noise on the power supply leads.
Could be 0.1 uF (100 nF).

Yep, exactly what @sj_remington said above. Also, it's not totally required. If you don't have one, can just power without a cap.
