    Capacitor help needed.

    I am dealing with crown ce1000 amp. and I came across for strange capacitors. On PCB and cap there is no marked polarity. I know that is 47uF/10V but is this bipolar or regular electrolitic cap.

    Thanks for help.
    Regards, Sebastijan.

    Re: Capacitor help needed.

    polarity is indicated by the plastic base - it will match an outline on the board.

      The straight side is the +ve and the curved side is the -ve.

        Hello.
        Yes I know that. But what is confusing me is this that all other smd caps have + marked on PCB only this four not. And if I compare picture from link I am not shure that this is regular electrolitic cap.

          They do look to be bi-polar. What are the designator as printed on the board?

            Hello.
            Thanks for manual.
            O.k. C3 and C30 are clearly electrolytic caps but if I look C113 and C114 is different symbol like C3,30. So I think this could really be bipolar cap. I will order bipolar caps and try. Hope all will be o.k.

            Thanks, Sebastijan.

              The manual lists C113 and C114 as NP (non-polar). So these are Bipolar/Non-polar caps.

                Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition
                by MORETTIGIAN
                Title:
                Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition

                Description:
                During maintenance on an RTX 2070 SUPER Founders Edition, I found a capacitor lying on my desk after reassembly.
                I did not notice it detaching, so I am unsure of its original location on the PCB.

                Procedure performed:
                - Removed backplate
                - Cleaned heatsink and PCB with isopropyl alcohol + soft ESD brush
                - Reapplied thermal compound
                - Reassembled card

                Observed behavior after reassembly:
                - GPU powers on and operates normally under...

                Help Needed: Reverse Polarity Issue on HP EliteBook 840 G4 – Where Do I Begin?
                by Dev Goose
                Hi everyone, I recently acquired an HP EliteBook 840 G4 (6050A2854301-MB-A01) that I'm hoping to bring back to life. I'm fairly new to laptop repairs but eager to learn and willing to put in the effort to understand and fix this. Any advice or guidance would mean a lot!


                What Happened
                The issue started when the laptop was accidentally plugged in with reverse polarity. Before this incident, the laptop would show a power/charging light whenever it was plugged in. However, now it's completely unresponsive—no lights, no power, nothing. I've been doing some research and understand

                Asus FA507R no power, capacitor needed
                by veedo
                Hello
                I've got an Asus laptop which received with no power, so I found that one capacitor been damaged. I don't have schematics for that board which is DANJMMB11A0 REV:A
                Without that caps laptop is turning on fine so problem more likely is sorted but I would like to put back the correct one as it should be.
                If any way could help with sorting out specification somehow, I just know that my meter shows 11,2uF but is it 50V or 10V ?? or any others.
                See attached photo off the capacitor, maybe someone have same motherboard and can check it for me please.

                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...

                Dick Smith Q-1760 linear power supply filter capacitor question
                by Agent24
                I have acquired a used Dick Smith Q-1760 power supply - although the OEM is Manson Industrial
                It has at least one problem.

                The voltage control potentiometer VR2, 50K is faulty - going high resistance / open circuit in the CCW end and leading to the output voltage jumping around.
                I have already ordered a replacement potentiometer, so that's not an issue.

                Now, I want to replace all three electrolytics on the PCB as they are CapXon and I don't trust them so much, I will replace them with something better while I've got the thing apart anyway.
                All are CapXon...
