    LCD Disection (Caps List by Model)

    I thought that maybe listing some of the information about what is inside of certain displays will help people recognize what is inside and what couple be problematic. I am including the the three main parts where cap failure can occur (PSU, Backlight Inverter and Video Input Board). Maybe if there is enough interest then a mod or someone can turn this into a sticky where everyone lists the details of their monitors, revisions etc. I opened it to make sure all of the caps were ok before I sold it, I didn't want a cap that has already gone bad but wasn't causing problems to be a problem later. Since it was still working I am not going to replace any of the caps, just don't want to break it, plus I need the money for knee surgery.

    So here we go, for my first one.
    Mfr: Viewsonic
    M/N: VP171b

    PSU:
    Li-Shin AREX 94V-0
    2 Panasonic 16V 1000uF 105oC HFA
    1 Panasonic (unknown value because epoxy covered that side, but it is about 1inhc in round, and what I can see says Ce GH)
    1 Rubycon XYG 50V 22uF

    Backlight Inverter:
    Emax 44.61101.001
    2 HERMEI 25V 100uF
    1 SSA 50V 2.2uF (M)P1 CE 105oC
    4 3kV 22J Ceramic caps
    2 250V PMS124J Ceramic Caps

    Video Board:
    Coretronic Corp
    Genesis gm5120 chip
    13 Taicon 16V 180uF 0304(M) 105oC (VT)
    2 Taicon 10V 1000uF 0304(M) 105oC (HF)
    2 Taicon 25V 10uF 0302(M) 105oC (PW)
    1 Taicon 16V 2200uF 0238(M) 105oC (PW)
    1 Taicon 16V 470uF 0246(M) 105oC (VZ)

    Mods: If this does end up becoming a useful list, feel free to edit my above post to remove parts and/or change the title as you see fit.

    Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
    by momaka
    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).

    It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

    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."

    Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
    by Paxman_Swede
    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...

    Help with switching power supply caps
    by captain150
    I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
    I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...

    Gigabyte GA-6OXT :: caps question
    by Foetuss
    Good evening

    I recently aquired a rev 1.1 Gigabyte 60XT, and was suprised of the amount of leaking caps for a motherboard of the P3 era. Especially the way the 330µf caps seems like the housing discolored even.
    Now, there are some 3300µF 6.3V KZG series around the CPU. Would it be OK to replace them with something like EEUFR1A332 ? (Panasonic FR 3300µF 10V). Or was this board designed around very low ESR caps?

    But I was also suprised about the bigger boys, which are 330µF 25V.
    Could it be they used 25V caps because they were cheaper / available at that time?...
