How to Read the value of my capacitor!?

[bobx]

Hello.I have some tantalum capacitors with thses numbers on them;

1. 100

2. 220

Would you please tell me what are their capacitances[ case 1 & case 2 ]?

Thanks,

There does not appear to be an internationally recognised marking code for these.
It would be impossible to say without a picture and then it would probably only be a guess.
As example this page http://alasir.com/reference/kemet_tantalum_capacitors/ might suggest that they are 100*10^0 picofarads and 220*10^0 picofarads.

Tantalum might be 10uF and 22uF.

The only way to be sure is to use a capacitance meter.
