    It's certainly similar but I hit Panasonic's site and don't see anything about a ZY series in any of their catalogs. It could have been retired but the computer in which it was installed is only two years old so you'd think I'd be able to find some mention about it somewhere via google.

    Regardless, I appreciate your response and I'll keep scouring.

      Big capacitors brands are sometimes making caps for vendors, for example - Panasonic FL and FJ, NCC W for seasonic, NCC PSF Black polys and Nichicon/Fujitsu FPCAP FP10K and FP12K

        Sometimes they have a model that is on a datasheet but with a size that does not exist on it, so you can't tell the exact ripple/esr

          I know it's 100uF 25V series ZY but I'm coming up dry on locating the manufacturer.

          Any ideas?

          It might be a Rubycon, look closer, and if you see a K vent, then it's Ruby

          The print format looks pretty close

            Re: Post help identifying capacitors here

            I've been told to post capacitor identification here.

            Original thread here

            The markings on this capacitor look vaguely familiar, but I haven't found the manufacturer of this capacitor (yet). Capacitor from video card.

            Who manufacturers this capacitor?

              Can you give full name of the videocard ?

              I recal EAX brand from mid 2000's, it was something about audio stuff, i think games used it.

              Maybe some custom audio caps for the EAX ?

              upd: looks like Chinsan(Elite), but they have little bit diffrent markings

                Capacitor from a GTX 1070 Ti card.

                Elite capacitor? Maybe, but EA(X) series not shown on their website. Unless capacitor is discontinued, or maybe capacitor is custom made (by Elite)?

                  Well, just one more thing

                  Brand and PN of card, so maybe I could find some more info on caps which this brand uses often

                    Re: Post help identifying capacitors here

                    Capacitor from a MSI card I believe. Card part number unknown, although as far as I know there is only one version of this card from MSI.

                    Partly by chance by searching on the internet, I now suspect that this capacitor is customized for MSI and possibly manufactured by Apaq.

                    Apaq have an EA series of capacitors with markings similar to this capacitor in question. But the standard EA series capacitors are marked in red color, and also include Apaq "eye" logo at the beginning of the second line of text/marking. But this "customized" capacitor has blue marking instead of red marking, and the Apaq logo was not included.

                    So at this time, Apaq seems to be the more likely manufacturer of this capacitor.

                      I think you're correct !

                      There are also AV5K caps as I can see on images from google

                        Yes, I also noticed the presence of the "5k" capacitors as well.

                            It appears to be a Partsnic capacitor.

                            There doesn't seem to be a valid website for this manufacturer, but details of many of their capacitors (including this FHX series) can be found here

                                Comment:
                                Established Deahan Marukon Co., Ltd. in 1973 and changed its name to Daewoo Electronic Components Co., Ltd. in 1983. In December 2000, DAEWOO's electronic component division was renamed PARTSNIC CO., Ltd. Therefore, the logo of the new capacitor will be the PARTSNIC logo (marked like an omega), and the old ones will be the DAEWOO logo (marked like a flower). I don't know if the timing of the logo change was immediately after the company name was changed or after a while.
                                And I received a new URL and additional information from Mr. Anonymous.
                                “Around 2006, it seems that the company name was changed from PARTSNIC CO., Ltd. to Daewoo Electronic Components. (Company reorganization) Looking at the website, for some reason the history of the PARTSNIC era (2000-2006) is blank. Was there a problem? Even so, the update of the HP is quite sloppy, and partsnic notation such as catalogs and e-mail addresses is left in places. 』
                                Daewoo Electronic Components seems to be aiming to enter the semiconductor equipment market in the future.

                                  Very small capacitor, is it 10v 16uF? What does the 9H2 mean?

                                    Yes . it is 10mf 16v .. 9H2 or other similar markings are specific codes for the manufacturers series , and sometimes it can be a coefficient of temperature . It depend on their companies design .

                                      Does the "s" in "16s" mean volts? otherwise how can you tell what is what? I mean could there be a 10v 16uF cap? how would you tell them apart?

                                        Does the "s" in "16s" mean volts? otherwise how can you tell what is what? I mean could there be a 10v 16uF cap? how would you tell them apart?
                                        You always take the first value for Capacitance and the second for voltage , that's the standards .

                                            Need help identifying capacitors on an MSI MS6163 ver 1. motherboard

                                            Hey there, retro fans.

                                            I have an MS6163 version 1 board I'm trying to repair which was obviously used as a donor because it's missing a few parts, mostly capacitors. There are few high quality images online that would allow me to read the capacitor values (bad angle, blurry photos). I thiiiink I've figured out most of the values for the missing ones except for one in particular, number C210, which is in the bottom-left of the attached photo. Could someone with this board be so kind as to take a look at theirs and tell me the capacitance and voltage values of all the highlighted missing...

                                            power on.

                                            Here are some examples :

                                            Hello everyone !

                                            I am new to this forum and also a begginer/hobbyist in electronics. I have a question about an old AT motherboard model PCChips/Hsin Tech M537 V3.1. It hasnt been powered on for 30 or so years.
                                            I have read that it is not safe to power it on after such a long time because capacitors can suddenly burst. When I inspect capacitors I cant notice any visible damage,leak,corrosion or bulged capacitors.
                                            What are your suggestions ? Replace all capacitors maybe or ?
                                            Thank you in advance for your answers !

                                            AA and AAA battery charger capacitors?
                                            by slybunda
                                            hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
                                            it has inside:
                                            2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
                                            2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon

                                            not heard of these brands are they any good?

                                            iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of...

                                            Solar Inverter - SMH-II - 2 missing capacitors
                                            by Cama
                                            Hello,
                                            I need help to find the value of 2 missing capacitors ( C102 and C117) on my Easun SMH-II mainboard (solar hybrid inverter). I circled it in red on the close-up picture. The 2 old capacitors are completely missing, so I have no reference. Does anyone have this board and can tell me the value or make an educated guess based on the location ?


                                            My model is : EASUN SMH-II 7 KW
                                            Mother Board : P/N 18947-002401250250
                                            Maybe the EASUN SMH-II 4.2 KW have the same capacitors


                                            Thank you...
