Hey, it's been far too long since I've done any real work with capacitors and need some guidance.
I have a Dell LCD monitor that has stopped working and after taking it apart noticed two caps that were bulging. They are CapXon 680uf 25v. I believe they are GF series as there is a GF 105* marked on them as well and I also believe these are low impedance caps.
I looked at some cross reference charts and found other manufacturers that are supposed to be a match, but when I look at the specs for them they say they are general electronics. I guess my question is, is it safe to put in low impedance/esr caps in anything that doesn't call for them. The cross chart showed the CpaXon GF series crossed to Panasonic FC. It looks like Panasonic low impedance caps are FM series, so I'm befuddled as to what I need to use.
Other information I found as to Cross:
RubyCon- ZL/ZLG
Nichicon- PA/HD/HC
Panasonic- FC/FK
Lelon- RZD/RXH
Again, what I've seen for the above, they don't appear to be low impedance.
Any insight on a proper match is greatly appreciated.
