    Asrock P4VM900-SATA2

    Hi,

    I have a board as the title says and there are two bloated caps on it.
    Some information about the failed capacitors:

    1x OST RLX 105C 0730 6.3 V 1500 uF

    1x OST RLP 105C 0730 6.3 V 1000 uF.

    They are located between NB and the main power connector.
    I ordered some Panasonic FR-series capasitors
    (specific models EEUFR0J102 and EEU-FR0J152L)
    but afterwards I noticed that their ripple current tolerances are
    lower compared to the originals ones
    (1580 mA vs 1650 mA and 950 mA vs 1540 mA).
    (provided that i have read correct datasheets)

    Is it okay to use them as replacements? Thanks for possible answers.

    It would of course not be optimal.
    But then again running the system with failed caps is much worse!

      The 1540mA ripple current rating comes from the 10x16 case size 1000uF 6.3V OST RLX in the datasheet, not the 555mA ripple rating found in the RLP datasheet for OST RLP (8x12 case size, 1000uF 6.3V). So I can't possibly see how using FR will hurt there. The 1580mA rating is possibly mistaken for the 1560mA rating in the Panasonic FR datasheet (8x20 case size)? That said, the replacement is rated for 0.030Ω whilst the original was rated for 0.021Ω. Panasonic FR has 4.5x the endurance rating of the original cap, but I would not recommend going up in ESR. This could be a better replacement for the failed RLX.

      Still, as Per said, there is nothing worse than running a board with failed capacitors (well, unless you try running the board with no capacitors installed, period, but we won't get into that ). If you are getting the FR from authorized distributors (Mouser, Digikey, etc), they should work fine. It would also be ideal to replace all the OST capacitors on the board, not just two, as if two have failed, the rest aren't far behind.

        Hi,

        Seemingly i didn't manage to read the datasheets properly.
        So it's okay to replace the failed 1000 uF capacitor with EEUFR0J102?

        I found also some Rubycon ZLH series caps (16V, 1800uF, 10x23, with the code T1138). They seem to have better ripple rating and almost same impedance (=ESR?) compared to the failed 1500 uF capacitor.

          Yeah you should be fine with those replacements.
          Note that you can also replace 6.3v rated capacitors with 10v or even 16v rated capacitors, as long as they'll fit.

            Hi everyone,
            help me please


            I have an HL-DT-ST BD-RE GGW-H20N with ROM version: XA02.




            When I tried to burn a 25GB Blu-ray disc using ImgBurn, I got an error.
            I will share all the details with you, including the disc information.

            Cyberpower 1500AVR UPS repair
            by quickname
            I'd like to start out by thanking this forum for providing the info to be able to repair my 15 year old CP1500AVRLCD UPS. Here is all the info I gathered during my trouble-shooting and re-capping.

            Like clockwork, I've had to replace the SLA batteries every 4 years. It was about that time and the UPS was acting like it needed new batteries... randomly shutting off with AC present, not being able to charge fully, and poor runtime when AC was removed. So, I replaced the batteries but noticed that it was not charging properly.

            I decided to verify that the batteries were...

            Request: Full BIOS dump for ASRock Z790-CX (DDR5)
            by gabrieljma1
            Hello everyone,

            I’m looking for a full raw 16 MB BIOS dump for an ASRock Z790-CX (DDR5) motherboard.

            The board powers on (fans spin, RGB lights on, RAM LEDs active), but there is no display output and the VGA and BOOT LEDs stay lit.
            I’m using an Intel i9-14900KF CPU (14th gen), and it seems the BIOS version on my board doesn’t support it yet. I tried to flash the official ASRock BIOS file (renamed .ROM → .BIN) directly using my RT809H programmer, but it didn’t work — monitor stays on but with black screen, so I believe the ASRock update file is not a complete...

            Is it no harm to replace with capacitor without ripple current rating?
            by chth96
            When I tried to repair LG 29 inch CRT TV, I found that the ESR value of samyoung SMS capacitor(160v 2.2uf), which is very close to D1879 transistor, is 6 ohm.


            Judging from above ESR Meter Table,I think It is necessary to replace this sms capacitor.So I visited local electronics shop,and I purchased 160v 2.2uf rubycon YK capacitor.
            But when I browse through rubycon YK datasheet,I found that there is no ripple current rating for 160v 2.2uf specification. But On the contrary, I found 39 mA ripple current rating for 160v 2.2uf SMS capacitor.
            Rubycon YK DataSheet (b...

            ASRock N100M, no picture no boot, but semi-alive
            by Exim
            Hi guys,
            I managed to semi-kill an ASRock N100M board after updating Bios from 1.10 to 2.01. It's a zombie now, dead, but not dead.

            ASRock N100M special features:
            - CPU soldered to board, small Intel 12th gen
            - iGPU
            - four POST LEDs

            Problem after updating Bios to 2.01 using the in-Bios update tool: no picture, no boot.
            I am not sure anymore if it booted at least once successfully after updating the bios to 2.01, maybe not, I can't remember. I think it did not.

            Symptoms:
            - no picture/signal on any of the display connectors,...
