    Xbox classic/original 10v 3300uf Polymer replacement?

    Hi all,

    For polymodding an original Xbox i'm looking for polymer replacements of the following capacitor:

    2x 10v 3300uf Nichicon PW
    One is on the left side of the board, the other one on the right as you can see the picture i linked below (the two big brown caps).

    Could i just use 2200uf polymers to replace them or do i really need the capacitance?

    I have searched the forum already but could not find an answer for it.

    Thanks.

      use 5x 1500uf polymers and fill the 2 unused spaces.

      the pcb was designed for 5x 1500uf or 1800uf caps

          I think you are talking about the black HM caps closer to the heatsink? That's exactly what i already did.

          But my question was about the brown ones in the bottom left, and bottom right corner that i can't replace with 5 caps.. since i don't think this is for the CPU i'm not sure i could use 2200uf polymer replacements

                  That 1.0 board seems to have a different layout. I've got the one i posted in the picture above and i can't fit 5 caps as you can see . Guess ill just use the 2200uf polymers and see if it works, or not .

                          Original Xbox 1.0 PSU: Foxlink FTPS-0002 Rev. B. — 12 V low, 5 V high — transformer?
                          by ohren
                          Hello!

                          I'm looking at an original Xbox PSU: Foxlink ftps-0002 rev. B. The 12 V output is too low, and the 5 V output is too (?) high. Unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope but only a DMM for diagnosis.

                          Measured voltages with no load:

                          After rectifier diodes
                          12V: 6.17 V
                          5V: 5.67 V

                          Secondary transformer pins AC measurement (really don't know if this says anything)
                          12V: 2-2.5 V
                          5V: 1.04 V


                          I also have another (working) Xbox psu from Delta. The same measures there, in order, being: 10.79,...

                          Xbox One Original missing 12v enable signal
                          by tccyo22
                          Hi there, I have an Xbox One original in which I have all the 1.8v, 3.3v and 5.0v standby power rails present, however my 12v rail is not turning on and the enable signal PSU_V12P0_EN from the SMC to turn the power supply on is missing. There is high resistance on this line so it's not shorted directly to ground which leaves me with not many options.

                          Was looking at a schematic and see the enable is created by the SMC. I have 3.3v on SMC_RST_N_IN but I'm a little stuck on where to look next. Is it likely that the SMC has gone bad or am I missing something else (it's my first time with...

                          =>Background:
                          I bought my son a used Xbox One original model: A12-220N1A Rev: 02 with original PSU & 2 controllers 7 years ago. I “modded” the unit placing a 4.5” 12V exhaust fan with a 9v wall wart adapter on top of the vent/fan of the unit. And plugged the Xbox PSU into a Tripplite LTR-600 voltage regulator. Also connected to the Tripplite are a 275w computer tower, an Xbox 360 PSU and a Westinghouse 52” LED TV. ...

                          does anyone have a schemtaic for what circuit each cap is in on the original xbox?
                          by bulkchart32
                          i have a 1.1v and i am having issues with faint wavy lines on the screen that i am trying to make perfect so it will be my main xbox.. also have some 1.0v's that are doing it but to a lesser degree. i really don't want to do a full board recap, especially don't want to have to replace those smds, so i want to find which specific caps that filter the video signal. i have already replaced several caps and messed up one of them that caused a dead short(has been repaired). so i really don't want to just do all the caps. plus, those 1.1v boards have a lot of them. i'd really like to just focus on the...

                          are these caps good for replacing the ones in front of the cpu/gpu on an original xbox?

                          are what​ i used because i had heard the voltage doesn't matter as long as it is more than the original cap. i'm now reading that high voltage may make the cap's esr too high. is this a good cap for replacing those oem ones?
