    Comparison Table of 4 Major Japanese Low ESR Capacitors

    Specifications of various famous capacitor brands

    Here is a comparison table of four major Japanese low ESR capacitors.
    Low ESR capcitors are suitable for motherboards, graphic cards and other circuits.

    The lower the ESR, the higher the grade. (In the following table, the lower a capacitor is placed, the lower the ESR, the higher the grade.)

    Nichicon NCC Rubycon SANYO Remarks
    VZ KMG YXA MV-CZ 105C General Purpose
    PW LXZ - MV-CX Miniature, Low ESR
    HE KY YXG MV-CA K6, K6-2, P2, P3 grade
    HD KZE ZL MV-WX K7, P3 grade
    HV KZH ZLH - Extra long life, miniature, Low ESR
    HM KZG MBZ MV-WG K7, K8, P4, P4+ high quality grade
    HN KZJ MCZ - Ultra Low ESR
    HZ - - - Lowest ESR of all electrolyte capacitors

    Panasonic is not listed because of their low market share and different specifications!

    interesting.. just want to tidy up a bit..


    Code:
    Nichicon 	NCC 		Rubycon 	SANYO 		Remarks
    VZ 		KMG 		YXA 		MV-CZ 		105C General Purpose
    PW 		LXZ 		-		MV-CX 		Miniature, Low ESR
    HE 		KY 		YXG 		MV-CA 		K6, K6-2, P2, P3 grade
    HD 		KZE 		ZL 		MV-WX 		K7, P3 grade
    HV 		KZH 		ZLH 		- 		Extra long life, miniature, Low ESR
    HM 		KZG 		MBZ 		MV-WG 		K7, K8, P4, P4+ high quality grade
    HN 		KZJ 		MCZ 		- 		Ultra Low ESR
    HZ 		- 		- 		- 		Lowest ESR of all electrolyte capacitors

      Can we update this list and make it a sticky?

      I.e. to have a good reference to go by...
      "The one who says it cannot be done should never interrupt the one who is doing it."

        I second that - it's a good idea.

        The various series names may be confused by some - and such a table provides an obvious, easy way to identify 'equivalent' models by ESR, inter-brand.

          My thinking too... Of course I have no idea if this very list is accurate or not, there are a few more lists like this one buried here somewhere...

            This thread inspiring me, so i'll make a comparison table between 5 major Japanese LESR capasitors. (Chemi-con, Nichicon, Panasonic/Matsushita, Rubycon, and Sanyo).
