Cant Find Solid Caps !?

08-14-2015, 01:43 AM

Looking for 470 uf 25 volt and 470 uf 35 volt or above, solid polymer radial lead capacitors. Cant find these anywhere messaged a couple sites, they don't have anything One did send me a link to a product pdf that I attached, so I know something like this does exist but still haven't been able to find any listed from any company :/ Any help appreciated, In the chance that I find one but its surface mount, is it easy/possible to convert to through hole ?

Re: Cant Find Solid Caps !?

X-CON makes ULG 470/25 but that is the best you can get, 35V are 330 uF only. Still quality caps any day of the week over chinese craps.

Replacing electrolytic caps by solid caps on old motherboards

by madscientist750

I do have several old pc motherboards which i recapped 10 year ago and some of those caps are bulged now.
I would like to upgrade them using solid capacitors. I do use them for testing and helping some alternative operating systems.
I would like to ask if such an upgrade can be done, what should i have in mind when replacing electrolytic by solid caps and if such thing exist, if there are caps list for old motherboards. I would have to figure out what caps needs each motherboard and then prepare a list to try to ask for them on some electronics stores.

Can't find exact matching caps for replacements, what should I get to prevent video issues?

by SluggerB

I have an old Tivo. The Power Supplies are known to have caps that fail. Here are the caps that come with the original power supply:

I could not find replacement caps with the exact same specs. I followed an online guide and recapped the power supply with caps with these specs

The power supply now works, however the HDMI video is giving me eye strain. I don't know how a capacitor on a Power supply could impact an HDMI video signal, but it does, the Tivo interface has a flicker now and the color/brightness is off. So I want to get some new caps...

Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!

by momaka

I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

Please teach me how to find datasheets to obsolete caps

by CdDvdFlash

I've got a Toei arcade CRT chassis and printed on the PCB is CM-R14 but it might be a CM-R20 and so far needs two caps replaced, I've looked on the Nippon Chemi-Con site and got their 2020 catalogue I cant find any info about the first cap in the catalogue or on their obsolete catalogue, on the cap is:

(Radial electrolytic cap) Nippon Chemi-Con 1uF 160v 85c 8mm diameter, roughly 15mm long (cap is bulging at the legs) with 6mm PCB hole spacing, the chassis service manual says this cap C58 is a CE04W with "04" in a smaller font than the capital "CEW" so it must be...

rio volt portable mp3 cd player.What type of caps are these?

by GraphicMan

Hello
this is a rio volt portable mp3 cd player main board
accidentally its 120ac power adapter was used with 220ac
the unit worked for few seconds and then off and never worked again
it normally takes 3volts batts or 4.5dc from the adapter socket

in the picture I believe this is the main power IC (4 channels)
it is the only area in the board that barely gets warm after few minutes
drawing 0.4 watts in total continuously

i did checked all the caps on the board including these caps around the IC
nothing is shorted...
