    need help for a7s8x-mx

    i recapped the MOBO anf it worked fine i changed all bad caps with higher voltage and capacitance... working very stable on the duron 950 proc... the board it clocked as 133Mhz... the problems icant make the board work on my original sempron 2200...


    help please....


    whats the good replacement for 840uf 6.3V?

    Re: need help for a7s8x-mx

    Which caps on the mobo, what brand of caps, and what series of caps were present originally? What did you replace each with (brand, series)? Details are required...

    820/6.3 Electrolytics at the VRM output can usually be replaced by a wide range of low-ESR and ultra-low ESR electrolytics. Rubycon MBZ, MCZ, ZL, ZLH, YXG, YXH; Panasonic FC, FK, FM; Nichicon PX, PW, HD, HE; Sanyo WG; etc. Check out the list of recommended capacitors for more details.

    OTOH, 820/6.3 Sanyo OSCONs have to be replaced by equivalent OSCONs or much-larger valued Electrolytics to be able to handle the higher ripple current that the OSCONs can handle. Likewise for Fujitsu SPAs.

      1000uf 6.3v or 10v caps will be fine for them. 840 or 820uf is an awkward value that's not easy to find for that voltage rate. OSCOn cap is another matter, but i dont sure they are OSCON caps.
      days are so short when you actually do something..

        I replaced all electrolytics in subwoofer, still get a hum in speakers - audio clip
        by Delicieuxz
        I get a faint, low hum through my PC speakers, which connect to the subwoofer in a 2.1 speaker system. The hum drives me crazy and makes me stressed. When I turn off the subwoofer, everything is quiet and I start to relax, lol.

        Here's an audio clip of the sound coming from my speakers:

        https://vocaroo.com/16HaryHwTx78

        I recorded with my phone's mic right next to the speaker, and the mic picked up a lot of speaker noise over top of the hum. But I don't hear that noise in the room, I just hear the lower-pitched hum that's buried beneath all the other...

        Large vs small electrolytics reliability
        by Physios
        Goodmorning.

        I have a curiosity: can low voltage/capacity electrolytic capacitors (e.g. 16V/47uf) last longer than high voltage / capacity ones (e.g. 63V/2200uf)?

        I ask because many threads indicate a life of electrolytics that does not go beyond 15 years (it seems to me that Panasonic has written something in its documents), but I have several musical instruments bought in 1980 that work perfectly: they have inside them many small electrolytics. I tried asking an electrical engineering friend to unsolder some and measure them, and these were incredibly within spec....

        What are the 'actual' effects of old electrolytics in a vintage radio?
        by Crystaleyes
        Hi all.

        Just trying to get a better understanding of electronics in general, and although I know that it can be general practice to replace any electrolytics in vintage gear, I was wondering 'what' are the effects from these failed components?

        I can see that a shorted cap acts as a short circuit and therefore a power drain, but what else might it cause?

        Similarly, an open cap won't be smoothing any signals but is there anything else?


        I'm sure this is basic 101 but I'm not at school, so just learning as I blow things up...

        Yamaha YST-MS25 amp board recap: replace small electrolytics with different type?
        by Exim
        Hi there, I'm working on the 25W amp board of a Yamaha YST-MS25. It's 20yrs old.
        Since a few months the volume on the left channel is way too low. It turned out that - compared to the intended use and the former price tag of this thing - they put solid stuff into it. So I decided it's worth a recap.

        The board uses two amp ICs on opposite sites of the board. Both ICs are connected to the same heatsink. The heatsink unfortunately is a bridge-like construction that covers almost all other components, including the majority of the caps (pictures and schematics below).

        Question about bipolar electrolytics
        by Cap_search
        Good morning all,

        Is it true that all the bipolar electrolytics are made/manufacturered of two "back-to-back" polar electrolytics in the - + + - configuration, and that would explain why they are usually larger than equivalent value of a common polarized electrolytic? (e.g. Muse UES)

        N.B.: polarized Silmic II are also usually larger than common electrolytic, though.
