    Capacitor question

    I have an EVGA Motherboard that got damaged in transit (capacitor got snapped off) and I have my refund and was told to just keep it, sooo that being said I'm going to try to repair it to see if it will post. I tried to find it online but am struggling to find the exact one. The cap says the following from top to bottom left to right

    C 98H
    270
    16v

    The negative side stripe is blue and the cap is silver in color.

    Another question is do i need to match those numbers, or if I get a cap with the same 270uF and 16V that is similar sized be just fine. Thanks!

      Re: Capacitor question

      its a 270 uf 16v poly.
      sounds like a ucc psc series

          Ok, so the second part is do i have to match the numbers? I've found some caps on ebay that I think should work but just am not sure. Size, lead spacing, etc all line up. heres a link:

              should be ok.
              that is if not counterfeit.
              the 98h is a date/lot code.

                  RTX 3080 FE Identifying capacitor
                  by Prolog
                  Hi 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...

                  If I replace with inferior capacitor, Is it No harm to other IC components at all?
                  by chth96
                  I replaced some capacitor which is located on optical pickup pcb which is shown in the table below(PCB #2).Because it have been out of order.
                  Now,It works very well,But I just have found that all caps (6svpc100my and other part number as well) ,which is shown in the table below, has ultra-high ripple current spec.
                  It is not able to obtain any capacitor which can be a substitute for this ultra-high ripple current nichicon capacitor.
                  So I replaced it with samxon and rubycon's general capacitor(GP,YXA series).
                  I know that these capacitor will not last as long as nichicon capacitor...

                  How can I test non-polarized capacitor?
                  by chth96
                  I desoldered samwha NF capacitor(50v 5.6uf) from PCB circuit of 29inch CRT TV which have symptoms of no display after I heard sound of inrush of current to TV whenever I switch on this television.
                  I measured ESR value of this non-polarized capacitor(samwha NF capacitor 50v 5.6uf) by means of MESR-100 ESR meter and It displayed 0.3 ohm

                  And When I measured its capacitance with digital multimeter and LCR-T4 Mega328 meter, It displayed 10uf from DMM and 8uf from LCR-T4 meter.
                  I found catalogue of samwha capacitor(samwha-catalogue_3.pdf file), which is attached to this thread,...

                  Is it no harm to replace with capacitor without ripple current rating?
                  by chth96
                  When I tried to repair LG 29 inch CRT TV, I found that the ESR value of samyoung SMS capacitor(160v 2.2uf), which is very close to D1879 transistor, is 6 ohm.


                  Judging from above ESR Meter Table,I think It is necessary to replace this sms capacitor.So I visited local electronics shop,and I purchased 160v 2.2uf rubycon YK capacitor.
                  But when I browse through rubycon YK datasheet,I found that there is no ripple current rating for 160v 2.2uf specification. But On the contrary, I found 39 mA ripple current rating for 160v 2.2uf SMS capacitor.
                  Rubycon YK DataSheet (b...

                  Should I replace polymer capacitor?
                  by chth96
                  a few days ago I finally purchased mser-100 v2 and I tested its abillity of measuring ESR value.
                  I found that It shows pretty accurate ESR value for electrolytic capacitor,But When I measure polymer capacitor of dreamcast game console,I found that one third of polymer capacitor's ESR value is more than twice the value of ESR meter table.(for example, I measured one polymer capacitor of 6.3v 100uf, It showed ESR value of 7.68)
                  Although my dreamcast now turns 20 years old but it still works. I occasionally have played game with it.
                  Is this ESR value of polymer capacitor correct?...
