    Mystery Nichicon 22uf 25v Caps

    Howdy folks,

    The GX260 strikes again, I just now noticed that a bunch of smaller caps on the motherboard are bad.

    There's no indication of what series these are, but they have the same color wrap as the HM series. They're rated at 22uf and 25v and about 5mm x 6.5mm. The only other markings are the temperature rating (105 degrees Celsius) and what I assume is a date code - A236. The data sheet for the HM series doesn't include caps with these ratings. I've attached some images of the caps themselves and where they are/were on the motherboard.

    Does anyone know what exact series these are? Also, what would be a suitable replacement?

    Cheers,
    -SwedishDiesel

          Mid/late 80's Nichicon Yellow Caps
          by nick3092
          I recently acquired a set of Bose Roomate speakers from the mid to late 80's. Basically the right speaker cabinet is completely passive, and the left one has the power transformer and amplifier circuit in it. Out of curiosity, I opened it up to see what the circuit looked like. Looks like they used all Nichicon VX (2x 4700uF/16v for smoothing off the bridge rectifier), a couple random Nichicon SE series sprinkled on the board, and what really caught my eye - 2 yellow sleeved Nichicon caps (both 1uF/50v with no real series marking. Below are pictures of the caps. The only thing not shown in these...

          Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
          by momaka
          I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

          For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

          It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

          Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
          by eryjus
          Hello,

          First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

          I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

          I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."

          Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
          by Paxman_Swede
          Hello!

          I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

          The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

          I have studied the board and...

          Help with switching power supply caps
          by captain150
          I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
          I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...
