    ULR 16 270 ZQ replacement?

    I popped a cap tonight on my GTX 480 from EVGA. Changing cases and my after market cooler leaves a couple of caps accessible and my finger slipped and popped one. The 2 posts are still attached to the board but the casing is off.

    Info on the cap is ULR 16v 270u ZQ. I am looking for a replacement to order in hope that it help me find someone to repair it for me. If you have any suggestions on where to get repairs as well, I am up for any advice.

    Measurements are 8mm by 11.5mm with red and silver top. Can post a photo tomorrow if needed.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Volack and welcome. The capacitor is most likely a polymer. Without seeing it I would say its like the one in the pic here ?

    Unless one of the guys here have a better choice I would fit this
    http://www.digikey.com/product-detai...7-1-ND/2347917

    or this

    http://www.digikey.com/product-detai...018-ND/1136108

    As a replacement.

    You clearly say you have no soldering/desoldering experience or equipment so I'm going to assume you may not want to invest in purchasing the required tools etc. That 'cap is only about a dollar and then shipping. The other thing is, you don't state where you live so again I'm assuming. Are you in the US ? After obtaining the part, find someone competent to replace that capacitor for you and thats it !

      Can you post a pic? ULR should be Samxon X-CON series... But usually they have some blue coloring, not red... Have never seen any problems with them before. What type of PSU are you using to feed the GTX 480?

            Here are 2 pictures of the cap. The leads are still in the board as they separated from inside the cap.

            Yes I am from the US and my experience is very little when it comes to soldering. Very minor stuff when I was a kid using a little 30w iron. Thanks for the suggestions on the 2 caps... the first one may just be a winner.

              Yes, those are certainly X-CON ULR.

              8x11.5mm 0.013 ESR 5000 Ripple

              The second cap is actually better rated and more economical.

                  Unknown transformer : how to find a good replacement part ?
                  by the_rem
                  Hello guys,

                  I would like a quite old but still good 800 W ATX PSU to be repaired. The problem was an extremely heavy coil whine coming from the small secondary transfomer on the PCB.

                  I desoldered it hoping the references on the upper side would allow me to find a adequate replacement part. Sadly the written references drove me nowhere but to the manufacturer (I-MAG). I sent them a message like a bottle in the see asking them to send me a datasheet of the transformer. And... They responded ! I received a kind of datasheet (see attachment) but my competencies do not allow...

                  PS4 controller left stick potentiometer replacement issue
                  by ezenia
                  Hello,

                  Not sure if this is the correct section, but I have a PS4 controller that I am trying to fix. It developed stick drift on the left stick and the usual simpler methods did not fix the problem.

                  So I went on eBay and ordered some replacement potentiometers. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174967976757 is where I got them from.

                  I took the green potentiometers off the replacement sticks and soldered them onto the PCB. Assembled the controller and ran some tests. The drifting was somewhat fixed (not fully in center, but way better than before). However,...

                  by boosti45
                  i have a 2020 macbook pro 13" A2251 with 820-09149 logic board so i found an issue with chip labeled U6903 according to schem. boardview using flexBV software, so i removed it from the board and the issue im having is that the chip says "07A08FI ELC180​" on top of it but when searching for a replacement chip, i can find tons of identical looking chips that also have "ELC180" printed on them but the first set of digits is never the same so im trying to find out if i need this exact chip with these same numbers as mine and if not which ones are compatible as a replacement?...

                  Macbook Pro A1707 - Dead - Battery 'popped'
                  by AdrenalinTL
                  Hi Peeps.

                  Just a quick question please as I am by no means an Apple fundi at all.

                  Can a 'popped' battery cause the Macbook to be completely dead? Client said the battery definitely popped. It doesn't look swelled or anything but it doesn't switch on at all. No lights, no fans, nothing.

                  Also, using a 85W original Apple charger. That is working for sure. Does it need more wattage?

                  Don't want to go buy a battery for no reason.

                  Client is adamant is worked before the battery popped and I can't see any damage what so ever on the board...

                  klipsch kda-500 amplifier suitable power supply capacitor replacement ?
                  by r2digital
                  I have a klipsch kda-500 that would turn on and allow me to get into the web management but it was picking up a lot of noise from audio sources so i decided to replace the smd caps on the power supply along with radial one. Some one was in here before me and they basically burned the bottom side of the traces off for the radial cap but i was able to repair it without any real problem. I thought i did a good job sourcing out replacement caps but apparently not and now i can't get the power supply to turn on it just constantly try's to keep turning on. Attached is a picture of the power supply before...
