    UCC made where?

    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?

    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.

      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.

        Where did you buy these capacitors from?
        My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

          IIRC Rubycon is the only on of them who has no fab in China, only Malaysia or somewhere around that corner.
