    Could use some help identifying cap :)

    Hey all,

    Sorry for the newbie request. I could use some help identifying this capacitor. After getting a little too rough cleaning this motherboard, this cap fell off. Attached are photos of markings, measurements and a similar cap with what appears to be a Nichicon symbol (not sure if that means all caps are Nichicon). I have found caps with the same specs but different measurements. Also, I don't have a ton of confidence in how I narrowed it down on Mouser or the Nichicon website. Thanks!

      The manufacturer logo you see indicates a Nippon Chemi-Con/United Chemi-Con capacitor.

          Capacitor Diarrhea - Nichicon PL Series
          by DrewPhillips
          Hello All, I have on the bench a couple of PSU's which have some failed Nichicon PL series caps. They didn't "puke" their guts through the top, but instead "diarrhea'ed" corrosive brown electrolyte through the bottom, down the legs and onto the board. On one cap, the electrolyte rotted the cap right off the board leaving 2 little stubs, and also corroded a trace on the foil side.

          The PSU's are Power-One MAP series and are ringing-choke topology. The semiconductors have date codes in 1993. The PSU's were used in a commercial application, fan-cooled. They had failed...

          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...

          Is there datasheet for nichicon LXJ series?
          by chth96
          I want to calculate capacitor ESR referring to below guide.

          https://forum.digikey.com/t/calculat...-from-tan/2633


          I must find out dissipation factor(Tan(δ)) for nichicon lxj series(6.3v 1500uf,25v 1000uf ,10v 2200uf)
          I finally found out datasheet which has all series of nichicon capacitor.But unfortunately, It removed old nichicon capacitor.
          Is there anyone who still has old nichicon datasheet which has information of LXJ series?

          Is there any datasheet for nichicon RT(M) series?
          by chth96
          A few days ago,I destroyed one of my japanese retro game console by pluging it to 220v outlet.
          https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...e-been-blew-up

          and I finally fixed​ this retro game console by soldering varistor and glass fuse.

          But I noticed that When I measure voltage of PSU's 5pin connector, it is 8.80-9.07v, 5.13v,3.40-3.48v,GND,GND instead of its rated voltage of 9v 5v 3v GND GND.
          I have spare console...

          Need Help Identifying A Diode
          by RetroComputingGrotto
          I have an MSI 3PA1 monitor on my bench that wont power on. I have tested the 2 (what I believe to be Schottky Diodes) and both are shorted in both directions (a common faulty from what I can see on Google) but I'm not certain what the markings on the Diodes mean so I need some help in identifying which ones to order from Mouser please?





          I've done a search for 101C 5100C and all I can find are datasheets for 5100C which say they are 20-100V 5A Schottky Diodes but I'm not 100% sure if this is correct or not and what significance the 101C is.

          We...
