    How can I determine the type of CAP??

    I have a bad capacitor in an MSI motherbaord. I have the numbers off of it and what might be the brand name, but looking at the catalog at Dig-Key I see there are dozens of types,Example;Aluminum Electrolytic, Axial Ceramic, Nobium Oxide, Specialty Polymer,etc...?? The cap I am needing is 6.3v 4700uf and it is about 7/8\" tall and 7/16\" Dia.. I believe I can read the name \"Pelon\" on it, but not certain, it's very small writing.
    Well, any help on this would be appreciated!

    You will want Aluminum Electrolytic, Radial leads, 105*c. Capacitor dimensions are measured in millimeters, and the caps you need will measure 12.5mm in diameter.
