    Can a 100uF/450 filter cap be replaced by a 120uF/450V cap?

    hi,

    I am trying to fix a monitor and it has a bad filter cap.

    The original cap is 100uF/450V and i have a spare (from another unit) 120uF/450V cap..........would it be ok to replace the 100uF with the 120uF?

        Fake Nichicon 100uF 450v GN (M)

        Hello,
        Just opened a fake Nichicon cap. Checked the technical data, and nothing matches. The capacitance and ESR are okay though. Interestingly, the legs are made of brass ...

        Modding HPF filter
        by madan1
        Hi everyone.
        Recently scored a dead amp from a mackie srm1801 subwoofer and after fixing it, now I'm thinking about a home cinema/party subwoofer project.
        Most likely I will use a 15" JBL woofer, which I already have and a diy box.

        After reading the mackie user manual, I noticed that it has a 40hz HPF (labeled as "36Hz BUTTERWORTH HPF" in the SM) to protect the speaker from low frequencies. Indeed this seems to be good idea for the intended usage - professional music subwoofer, but bad for movies, where one would expect to "feel" the SUBwoofer....

        PS4 ADP-240CR fast shutdown
        by tikyucnan
        We repaired an ADP-240CR that was not producing 12V properly.
        DDA001AG and 1608B were broken, so they were replaced and 12V came out normally, but when connected to the main unit and turned on, it immediately shuts down.
        Then 5V is not output and the power supply locks up.
        When the power cable is disconnected and reconnected, the lock is released.
        I have seen the locking symptom when there is something wrong with the 1608B, so I replaced it with another 1608B, but the situation remains the same.

        I transplanted major ICs such as DDA001AG, DAS001, 1608B, DNP012A,...

        Missing Component Values on a Pectlight TX1775DH PSU
        by Crystaleyes
        I was given a Chinese lighting SMPS to have a look at.

        It's only a small thing with a single 24v 8.3A output, coming off a 127v mains input.

        It came with a blown fuse and someone had already changed the filter caps and the switching Mosfet Source resistor, and it is these values which I am wondering how best to work out.

        The FET is a FQPF12N80C N-Channel with the Source resistor connecting straight to ground.
        The original resistor had been replaced with two piggy-backed 0.33Ω which measures around 0.18Ω on my tester. I am still learning...

        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...
