    Help ID this SMT electrolytic cap "CD"

    Confused ID'ing this SMT electrolytic capacitor. I have:
    G3
    470A
    CD

    I think it's a Nichicon CD series but the ring logo I don't recognize. Should be:
    Lot. #
    Capacitance+voltage
    Series

    Would make it a 47uF 10V 6.3mm
    But the part is bigger - 8mm I estimate and that's a 470uF 10V size.
    Like "471A" marking I would expect then.

    What value is this part?

      Yep, it's a Nichicon CD series, just look at the photo of the larger capacitor in the datasheet. Let me know if you need any additional information.

        Physical size (8mm) it's 470uF, marking is "470A" but code should be 471 1A.
        It appears Nichicon code is only for the part number, or if the cap is too small to have 4 digits printed on it.
        Otherwise, it's capacitance in uF.

          Replace electrolytic cap with bipolar one
          by Adenitz
          Hello,
          can I use this cap:
          https://www.tme.eu/en/details/ues1h4...tors/nichicon/

          Capacitor: electrolytic; bipolar; THT; 47uF; 50V

          to replace this capacitor: Electrolytic Radial E 47uF/50V 6.3x11 RM2.5 105°C Jamicon

          What exactly I can expect to install bipolar electrolytic cap instead a regular one?

          Thanks.

          Replacing electrolytic caps by solid caps on old motherboards
          by madscientist750
          I do have several old pc motherboards which i recapped 10 year ago and some of those caps are bulged now.
          I would like to upgrade them using solid capacitors. I do use them for testing and helping some alternative operating systems.
          I would like to ask if such an upgrade can be done, what should i have in mind when replacing electrolytic by solid caps and if such thing exist, if there are caps list for old motherboards. I would have to figure out what caps needs each motherboard and then prepare a list to try to ask for them on some electronics stores.

          Electrolytic cap endurance
          by Perry Babin
          From what I've found, the endurance of a liquid electrolytic cap is determined by the loss of electrolyte. If a cap is rated for 1000 hours. That's typically for a straight run test. How would the life vary if the cap is intermittently heated to its rated temperature (105C). Maybe for an hour at a time then cooled back to 30-40C (just a random number). Would the life still be 1000 hours?

          Does it make a difference in the life expectancy if the cap is heating from ripple current (internal heating) instead of from the external ambient temperature?

          Why do polymer capacitors...

          Nippon Chemi-con 100uf 100v BP electrolytic cap
          by ten-d
          Hi all!

          I just bought a pair of ADS L810 speakers, which I've heard are some of the best speakers from that time (late 70's) into the early 80's. I was super excited to test them out and hooked them up and I was very underwhelmed by the treble. The treble was awfully muffled. I've been doing some restoration work on 70's stereos and a couple of speakers here and there so I am really just a beginner. I do know that capacitors in speaker crossovers filter out the lows to allow only the highs up to the tweeters and mids. Inductors filter out the highs to allow the lower frequencies to...

          How do organic polymer caps compare to liquid electrolytic for reliability
          by Perry Babin
          I have a situation where a power supply is commonly abused and the 12v supply caps take a beating. They don't commonly fail but they run hot. I was thinking about going from a liquid electrolytic (Panasonic FC and Nichicon HE) to an organic polymer. The values have been 330uF. I typically use a higher-than-needed voltage to get a lower ESR. The supply is operated from 12v.

          If not organic polymer, what would be the caps that could take the most abuse?
