    How can I determine the type of CAP??

    I have a bad capacitor in an MSI motherbaord. I have the numbers off of it and what might be the brand name, but looking at the catalog at Dig-Key I see there are dozens of types,Example;Aluminum Electrolytic, Axial Ceramic, Nobium Oxide, Specialty Polymer,etc...?? The cap I am needing is 6.3v 4700uf and it is about 7/8\" tall and 7/16\" Dia.. I believe I can read the name \"Pelon\" on it, but not certain, it's very small writing.
    Well, any help on this would be appreciated!

    You will want Aluminum Electrolytic, Radial leads, 105*c. Capacitor dimensions are measured in millimeters, and the caps you need will measure 12.5mm in diameter.

        by electronx
        Hi everyone,

        I’m currently learning about the USB protocol and designing a project, but I’ve encountered a few questions that I couldn’t find clear answers to. I’d really appreciate your input!

        1. USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 with SuperSpeed Type-A Connector
        According to the USB 3.2 specification, it states that USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 can support a SuperSpeed Type-A connector. This raises a question:

        If we use a SuperSpeed Type-A connector, the system would only utilize 1 lane for data transfer, leaving 1 lane from the host unused. Is this configuration valid,...
