    It's made by Delta, probably for Apple, so of course it's going to have good capacitors. Delta in general uses good capacitors.

    It's used in Airport Extreme : http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/AirPo...ardown/15044/2

      Yes. Those caps are Rubycon, which are fine.
      I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

      No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

        Every Delta I've seen had Ltecs.

          Old Deltas had Ltecs. Even older Deltas had United Chemi Con and Taicon (I have a 100w psu full of Taicon). They still use Taicon a lot - which is a subsidiary/offshoot of Nichicon.

            I've seen delta psus with Nichicon caps and OST caps too (the OST, 200v 680uF were bad)

              How old? They were in a printer from 2011.

                It depends on who they were OEM for, I guess for large orders they're flexible in regards to using customer's parts or going with their less good choice.
                They were some printer power supplies, some monitor psus but don't remember now exact models.

                  Never seen a Delta with an OST or Teapo, or anything alike... you sure it wasn't a CapXon or Elite? :P Not trying to doubt you, but OST sounds more like a Seasonic build to me, or Lite-on or Hipro, or FSP.

                    That's what it was - a Lexmark C543dn. Lexmark splurged on Rubies for the motherboard but couldn't get Delta to do the same in the power supply. It was a mix of Ltec and CapXon - 2 Ltecs (under the +12V rectifier heatsink) failed.

                      I still have an old power supply from a printer. It is made by Panasonic, it has Panasonic and Nippon-chemi-con capacitors. Decent sized heatsink, and proper emi filtering too.

                        Casing Power MPT-301 [PCB ATX9806b-p REV: A3]
                        by momaka
                        This one should make @Pentium4 smile (if he is still reading BCN forums) – I got a new old stock / open box Casing Power MPT-301 PSU on eBay for $4 total.


                        Yes, it’s a very generic-looking box, but the manufacturer isn’t (at least not back in the days), which is…

                        Macron Power Technology Co. LTD.

                        Let’s look at the PSU itself.



                        The shell/case also appears quite generic, like many “sold-with-the-PC-case” units. However, the shell is well-formed and has decent steel thickness. In terms of...

                        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."
                        ...

                        HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
                        by momaka
                        Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

                        are these caps good for replacing the ones in front of the cpu/gpu on an original xbox?

                        are what​ i used because i had heard the voltage doesn't matter as long as it is more than the original cap. i'm now reading that high voltage may make the cap's esr too high. is this a good cap for replacing those oem ones?
