    Advent 5611 capacitor issue

    Hi,
    I got a Advent 5611 laptop to prepare it properly for a donation. With the heat-conductive paste change, I have noticed an ELCON 6,3V, 220microF capacitor in a strange, slightly inflated state at the top and the plastic cover altered. I can not figure out how this condition could influence and I would like to know if I can replace it.
    I did not find the specifications to find its equivalent, and I would like some help.
    Maybe a solid capacitor ?

          Replacing an inflated capacitor is recommended if you got enough soldering skills. A solid capacitor is a good candidate for this replacement. but this capacitor is not very inflated.
          If the capacitor is SMD, its soldering will be difficult, because there is no free space around it.

              What worries me more is the plastic label that's not straight, usually a sign of overheating which will make the capacitor degrade much faster. An electrolytic capacitor is a very, very poor choice here and is a design issue in itself…

                  That's what I thought.
                  So, what replacement would be the best for ELCON 6,3V, 220uF, EHZ, preferably solid capacitor?
                  I found these specs, but not EZH:
                  http://www.elcon.com.tw/#/product/product-finder/

                  I do the repair, the capacitor isn't SMD, so it's not a problem.

                      you can replace it with 220uf ,6.3v smd capacitor and you can find them plenty on scrap mb's

                              I found a capacitor marked with red colour/fonts.
                              FP
                              9YAF
                              221
                              6.3V
                              Seems to be a low ESR Fujitsu (or Nichicon ) capacitor, but I'm not sure about the values of the replaced capacitor, like ESR and ripple.

                              My capacitor seems to be one Samcon of 220uF, 6.3V, dxh=8x7, Impedance=0.09ohm, Rated Ripple=576: https://cdn.badcaps-static.com/pdfs/...2bb01fcdde.pdf

                              I was so upset that I did not know what decision to take

                                  TCL 43s405 4k TV only runs on lower power mode. Sound like a capacitor issue?
                                  by link626
                                  I've gone through 2 of these power supply boards.
                                  Same issue on both. If I use TV at full brightness, full power, the screen will start blinking; go black once every 2 seconds.
                                  It was fine for months before exhibiting this issue.


                                  If I lower the brightness, and run it in low power mode, the blinking stops.

                                  Attached photo below is the board.


                                  Do you think this blinking is a capacitor issue?

                                  These are all HEC brand cheapo caps, except the 82uF which is YST brand.
                                  I cannot find spec sheets.

                                  If I replace with inferior capacitor, Is it No harm to other IC components at all?
                                  by chth96
                                  I replaced some capacitor which is located on optical pickup pcb which is shown in the table below(PCB #2).Because it have been out of order.
                                  Now,It works very well,But I just have found that all caps (6svpc100my and other part number as well) ,which is shown in the table below, has ultra-high ripple current spec.
                                  It is not able to obtain any capacitor which can be a substitute for this ultra-high ripple current nichicon capacitor.
                                  So I replaced it with samxon and rubycon's general capacitor(GP,YXA series).
                                  I know that these capacitor will not last as long as nichicon capacitor...

                                  How can I test non-polarized capacitor?
                                  by chth96
                                  I desoldered samwha NF capacitor(50v 5.6uf) from PCB circuit of 29inch CRT TV which have symptoms of no display after I heard sound of inrush of current to TV whenever I switch on this television.
                                  I measured ESR value of this non-polarized capacitor(samwha NF capacitor 50v 5.6uf) by means of MESR-100 ESR meter and It displayed 0.3 ohm

                                  And When I measured its capacitance with digital multimeter and LCR-T4 Mega328 meter, It displayed 10uf from DMM and 8uf from LCR-T4 meter.
                                  I found catalogue of samwha capacitor(samwha-catalogue_3.pdf file), which is attached to this thread,...

                                  Hi everyone,

                                  I'm working on a MacBook Air 2020 (A2337, board 820-02016) and running into a strange USB-C issue. I've gone through quite a bit of testing and part replacement, but I'm stuck — hoping someone here can shed some light.

                                  🛠 Original Issue
                                  The machine initially wouldn't negotiate 20V over USB-C — stuck at 5V.
                                  Diagnosis showed PP1V5_UPC0_LDO_CORE shorted to ground.

                                  I replaced U3100 (UF400) using a donor board (A2179), and the machine powers on fine now.

                                  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...
