need help picking right cap to get

[kozan]

Hi, I have an Acer al2216w monitor with a delta dac-19m009 rev:02a power supply board in it. the board has 3 obviously bad caps with bulging tops. I am planning to replace those plus some of the other caps that don't look bad but might be suspect, making 8 total to replace. I'm going to leave the big 400v and the small one next to it alone as they don't look bad and are covered in solid white goo of some kind.

I have some experience in replacing caps but I am not very familiar with the specific details beyond the uf and voltage rating. I was trying to find replacements to order off digikey but am confused about which ones to get because they have different amp ratings listed.

so, if i get a 2200uf 10v cap; how can i know which will work properly. Can i get one regardless of the amperage listed or do i need a specific one?

Re: need help picking right cap to get

To make life easy, just order Panasonic FR or FM. If neither are available, then choose Panasonic FC.

The quick way to do it in digikey is to type this into the search engine

1000uF 16v fr

Make sure the diameter and height fits.
