Re: What can I replace SK and SL caps with?
Those are both general purpose caps. -
Re: What can I replace SK and SL caps with?
Can I replace them with low esr caps like FR, FM, HM, HE? Since I already have these on hand.Comment

Re: What can I replace SK and SL caps with?
Be more specific... What part of the PSU? If it's around a VRM, then no, I would not recommend mixing caps with varying ESR.
ESR, lowest to highest: HM, FM/FR, HEFR, FM, HM, HEComment

They used GP caps in THAT!!!!!!!
~ What Fuckers!

Considering the original are GP - something like LXZ, FC, PW are good enough.
With that many caps I'd just do an order and save the better caps.

Will what you have on-hand at least work?
~probably~
There is such a thing as too little ESR but I haven't seen issues with a screen yet.

I'm going to recap the inverter while I'm at it.
But I have 470uf 100v SK on the input near the power cable coming from the PSU and 2x 220uf 100v SL on the outbound before the CCFL transformers.
Should I replace them?Comment

IIRC, Nichicon CA, CS and CY series are high quality, long life in inverter use.PeteS in CA

Always use low ESR caps in PSUs, even if they were not low ESR to begin with.

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).

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... -
Hello everyone I have a question. I have a laptop and his schematic. Can anyone tell me how to measure or any way to understand specific of caps so i can buy new one?
Also in case how can I understand if some caps of some dead Mobo i have, are ok to be replaced in my new motherboard which im trying to fix?
Thank you! -
I do have several old pc motherboards which i recapped 10 year ago and some of those caps are bulged now.
I would like to upgrade them using solid capacitors. I do use them for testing and helping some alternative operating systems.
I would like to ask if such an upgrade can be done, what should i have in mind when replacing electrolytic by solid caps and if such thing exist, if there are caps list for old motherboards. I would have to figure out what caps needs each motherboard and then prepare a list to try to ask for them on some electronics stores. -
It's feeling like this board has a case of badcaps, instability and reboots - and not wanting to necro a a very old thread, it seems the 680uF 4V are highly suspect.
I don't really want to blanket recap everything, but maybe the others around that area could do with being changed?
Equipment: I have a temperature controlled soldering station, read the bit where it says set to 400F, don't think I would have gone that high without reading that.
Spring plunger solder sucker, and some desolder braid... and a bit of good old leaded 60/40.
PS. Additional diagnostic,...
