I recently received a few packets of different KZN and other series, some of them are labeled " country of origin " Japan, some say China. Is this normal and should I be worried?

Re: UCC made where?
Is it normal: I'm going to say "yes". Just because they are called "Japanese", most capacitors are going to be made in China or Taiwan, even if they are from Panasonic, Rubycon, or NCC. In general if a cap is "chinese" or "taiwanese" or "Japanese" typically is used to refer to the the company that makes them. -
Re: UCC made where?
OK, thanks. I noticed that most of the Panasonics were made in Malaysia as were most of the Nichicons. Rubycons were mostly from Japan. The UCC KZN's I got were made in Japan, China and Malaysia. Somehow I figured that they would make a series in one place. Guess not.Comment

Re: UCC made where?
IIRC Rubycon is the only on of them who has no fab in China, only Malaysia or somewhere around that corner.Less jewellery, more gold into electrotech industry!

Just wanted to share some information that I ran across when attempting to do the tape method on a tv with a shorted panel. I normally use magnifying glasses however while watching a you tube video, the person was using their phone. It seems that the Iphone has a magnifier app and wow, it works great. I have Iphone 11 and the app is built in. Pictures attached are screen shots. Made taping the pins a breeze. Also useful when reading the tiny print on the boards. Hope this helps somebody. ... -
Hi,
I'm trying to resurrect a LG OLED C1 TV that has some panel banding. I used the TCON error bypass to get a picture. I was able to update the firmware as well. But when I performed a pixel cleaning to try to get the banding out, it made the image significantly worse. I tried to undo the effects of the pixel cleaning by performing a factory reset and IN_Stop, but that didn't work. Any way to reset pixel cleaning data?... -
The PCB motor for 1987 Technics SLP-120 CD player has slow spin-up issues. Similar to what another tech in the below video reported.

I replaced the three bi-polar 47uF electros but that made no difference. The orig three bi-polar 47uF electros tested okay on my ESR M-tester.
I have not tested/replaced those alum. SMD electro PCB caps.
Are Al smd caps are more prone to failure (or degradation) than regular thru-hole electros?
All the thru hole electros I removed / replaced on this CDP (and most... -
Hi folks i need some help from the electronics pros on a small audio amp for my old lcd tv that sound is too low on the speakers despite to be on the max volume, i know the issue is on the main board , the only solution is to buy a new board but i don't want to shell out 50 bucks for a board . I have seen in Utube some home made audio amps but i'm weary about those projects, i 've seen a audio buit with an STK audio amp ,. I don't have STK4142, i have STK4273, my question if this is not fake and works can i do it with STK4273 instead of STK4142? thanks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcTZS5Y...02-04-2024, 10:42 AM
