I've noticed that the latest Panny caps do no longer bear the Matsushita logo. Actually there is nothing about Panasonic either. Instead there is just "TF". Is that some kind of plant indentification or what??

Re: Panasonic TF marking?
same noted on the case of 2200/16 fr i got in.
look like genuine pannies to me and came from digikey.
i specifically got them from digikey to ensure authenticity.

Re: Panasonic TF marking?
I got FR too, squeezed some normal pricing for higher quantity from Farnell. But there is no Panasonic identification

Hi everyone!
I happened several times, in the search for help from the web, to consult this very interesting forum.
So I decided to sign up and I intend to participate actively by making available my knowledge and experience on the subject, I'm a new user but at the same time I'm old in the sense that I have 4 decades of experience in repairing and designing electronics but above all I'm a great passionate about the subject.
Having said that I come to the gist of my post on the forum as the title suggests.
For my passion for technology I'm now collecting several... -
In the Panasonic service manuals, both in the board schematics and in the part listing, the part numbers that are given are Panasonic part numbers instead of the actual part numbers.
This is especially annoying for small SMD components like diodes and transistors when you only have 1-3 digits printed on the component body.
For an example, look at the attached PDF.
Do you have a way to cross reference the Panasonic part number with the actual part number?
Thanks....07-03-2023, 08:16 PM -
Hello all. Only my second post.
I have a panasonic CF-20C5142VM which was booting to bios with no issues. I needed to add an ssd that was not initially being recognized by the bios. Found a link that suggested that I disable uefi mode and clear keys then to reboot to allow bios to now see New ssd. After restarting, screen is entirely black with no image. Found another post that suggested unplugging bios battery because some remnants of the bios may still exist in other parts of board but did not fix issue-screen is still black.
Anyone run across something like this before?... -
I am trying to fix a dead lane switching track piece for slot cars made by Carrera. I measured component on PCB and found out that at least two components have gone bad. I suppose they are transistor which drive the solenoids. Their marking is AKE87. Those components are marked T3 and T4 on circuit board. I tried to search that marking from the internet but didn't find anything. I would like to know if those are transistor and what could be used as a substitute.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hello Everyone,
My name is Haris and, I am new to the forum. I would appreciate any help I can get.
Little back story on me and the issues that we are dealing with...
I work on a fleet that uses Panasonic CF-20s we have about 65 of them. Up until the beginning of the year they all had warranty so all the repairs were covered. Fast-forward to now and all of the units are out of warranty and it can't be extended past this point. We don't have the budget this year to replace them, so we will be stuck trying to fix any issues that may come up.
