    Substitutions

    I have an Abit KT7A-RAID Mobo with a few bad caps that I need to get back into service ASAP. The caps in question are Teapo 2200uf 6.3v. I have some older Mobos that I use for practice and can get a number of Rubicon 2200uf 16v caps. Can I go up on the voltage that much and be OK?

    Re: Substitutions

    In short, you can go up in voltage. It is no problem. The only problem that may occur is that the 16V capacitors will be larger...will they fit in the spots you wish to place them in?

    Also ensure that the capacitors you get are Low ESR capacitors and not General Purpose capacitors.

      I replaced one Xbox 360 16v 1500uF Cap with 25v 2200uF what issues will it cause?
      by Rotsinger
      So the 16v 1500uF capacitor C9B1 near the power connector on the back of a Phat started leaking. Haven't been able to find the right cap, so I replaced it with a larger 25v 2200uF capacitor a couple weeks ago and everything is working fine since then. I didn't replace the other six 16v caps, they were all good.

      When putting the fan plastic cover back I remember there were maybe 2-3 mm of clearance on top of it and 1-2 mm of clearance to the side of it.
      For those that don't remember what the fan cover looks like I found this picture https://cdn.quade.co/wp-content/uploads/2...

      [MSI KT3 Ultra ARU] Advice on capacitor choice
      by cloppy007
      I've found out that the all the Nichicon HM(M) caps on this board are faulty and need replacement. However, I didn't plan in advance and I don't have good replacement caps.

      The original values are 2200uF, 6.3V, 5mm pitch. According to the datasheet, the rated impedance should be around 13-18 uOhms.

      There are 8 of them, 3 to the left of the CPU socket and 5 on the bottom, very close to the northbridge. They are all connected, according to my multimeter.



      I think I recall hearing that I don't have to use the same capacitance for in series...

      Cap availability problems
      by bigbeark
      I'm hard at work recapping some faulty ATX PSUs.

      I'm rapidly depleting my stocks of PSU appropriate capacitors. I would like to use UCC KY series but can't find 2200uf in 10mm can diameter. Mostly I am replacing bulged TEAPO SE(Green) and TEAPO SEK (Brown) 2200uf 10v 10mmx20mm.

      I have a few Rubycon ZL and Rubycon YXG in this size but these need reforming.

      I had to use 3 UCC KMG caps, they seem to work fine, but not exactly sure. Some of the Data Sheets do not give detailed ripple current and ESR data for comparison.

      Any used caps that...

      Replacement caps for Samson Resolv studio monitor 65A Amp board.
      by black6host
      Good day!

      I have a Samson Resolv studio monitor that has no sound output. I've opened it up and found two caps that are bulging on what I believe to be the power supply section of the amplifier board. The board is marked Resolv 65A AMP V1.2. The caps in question are YUSCON, 2200uF, 35V, 85C temp and have markings of RA(P) and are 16mm x 25.5mm tall. I've attached the schematic and the caps in question are C5 and C6. I'm assuming they are low esr caps. I've tested both caps and they test low uF, nowhere near 2200uF.

      I'm going to replace the caps and I'll be the first...

      Picking caps for Antec SU-380
      by ajdrenter
      In my search for a proper 5v heavy ATX power supply, I selected an old Antec SU-380 that I've had in storage for a long time. Opening the power supply reveals a couple bulged capacitors. I removed all the caps and made a map for myself. I found the datasheet for the PCE TUR series in this thread:
      https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=14159
      It says these are general purpose, so I assume I can replace them with any general purpose capacitors, but I don't really know anything about power supply circuits or reading capacitor datasheets. Despite this, I've been shopping for replacements:...
