I have a 10J 6KV that blew out. Can I replace it with a 10uF Tantalum Capacitor 16wvdc.

Re: Capacitor question
If you do there will be unsafe fireworks. An exploding tantalum could put your eye out. It smells real bad too.Comment

Re: Capacitor question
Well, you could physically replace it with that Tantalum one but it would be a very bad idea - unless you want to see it go up in flames.
From the labeling you have posted, the capacitor you have is a high voltage Ceramic type rated for 6kV/kilovolts - That's 6 thousand volts!
Tantalum is not the same as Ceramic, it's polarised while Ceramic is not. Also the 16WVDC means it can only handle up to 16 volts. That's a far cry from 6,000 volts! There is also an issue of value too. Your original one is 10pF while a 10uF Capacitor is 1,000,000 times (yes, One Million times) larger in capacitance.
Suffice to say it will NOT be suitable at all!
The one budm linked to is what you need."Tantalum for the brave, Solid Aluminium for the wise, Wet Electrolytic for the adventurous"

Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition
Description:
During maintenance on an RTX 2070 SUPER Founders Edition, I found a capacitor lying on my desk after reassembly.
I did not notice it detaching, so I am unsure of its original location on the PCB.
Procedure performed:
- Removed backplate
- Cleaned heatsink and PCB with isopropyl alcohol + soft ESD brush
- Reapplied thermal compound
- Reassembled card
Observed behavior after reassembly:
- GPU powers on and operates normally under...11 Photos -
by PrologHi people, I hope this is the correct spot to post this, I'm new to the forum.
I have an RTX 3080 Founders Edition which has a burnt up capacitor (it was in parallel with another capacitor which appears damaged too), so I am hoping to be able to identify the capacitor values and order replacements.
I hope these photos make it clear which component I am referring to:
(yes, the soldering is a bit botched from removing the blown one, I know)
I have found the board schematic (attached), but there does not seem to be a boardview available. I have never... -
by vionescuHi, last night my zotac 1070 mini blew off a capacitor. I've had a look and identified it to be C336 capacitor and maybe the R005 resistor. Does anyone have any idea what kind of replacement capacitor I need to get to fix it or any boardview schematics for the card?...

by shanedev93Spot welder capacitor blew up should just replacing them fix it? The board is very dirty gonna remove it and clean it an see if I notice anything wrong that could cause this issue.

by Agent24I have acquired a used Dick Smith Q-1760 power supply - although the OEM is Manson Industrial
It has at least one problem.
The voltage control potentiometer VR2, 50K is faulty - going high resistance / open circuit in the CCW end and leading to the output voltage jumping around.
I have already ordered a replacement potentiometer, so that's not an issue.
Now, I want to replace all three electrolytics on the PCB as they are CapXon and I don't trust them so much, I will replace them with something better while I've got the thing apart anyway.
All are CapXon... - Loading...
