    Capacitors commonly used in PSU's?

    Hi people, want some help

    What capacitors are commonly used in power supplies?

    Big Pope has a Samxon RS 7000H cap in stock. 3300uF 16v 12.5x35mm impendace: 0.015Ω ripple: 3400

    I think it looks really good however 12.5mm is a tight fit in many cases. Most PSU's use 2200uF 16v 10mm caps right?

    So we need those too

    And then in 6.3v rating we need 1000uF, 1500uF 2200uF and 3300uF

    Anything I am missing?

    Big Pope can also get a new series of caps, Samxon GT. They have a life rating up to 10000 hours, I'm attaching the PDF of both caps, please provide some input on which caps you would like Big Pope to have in stock

    (I'm uploading them here because Samxon's site is slower than a snail that lost all the gooey stuff on the underside that makes it go forward )

      I have a spread sheet working for PSU and motherboard caps. I keep adding to it as I gain more information.

          All the big caps in my Antec SL350 were 10mm. Although, there was a 4700uF 10V in there and rather than use a 12.5mm as it was silk'd for, they used a 10x36mm... from Fuhjyyu!

              Yea, I've seen those 4700uF 10v 10mm caps too, probably not near that uF rating even when they are new I would guess

                  Commonly used SMD capacitors
                  by Jmine
                  I'm hoping to order some SMD capacitors for the first time and I was wondering which size and value are mostly used in laptops. I'm looking to buy an assortment of capacitors. Any thoughts?

                  After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
                  by dragon3x
                  Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
                  power on.

                  Here are some examples :

                  (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
                  switching supply area).
                  (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
                  than 6.3 V.)

                  1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
                  I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
                  3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA...

                  AA and AAA battery charger capacitors?
                  by slybunda
                  hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
                  it has inside:
                  2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
                  2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon

                  not heard of these brands are they any good?

                  iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of...

                  Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock
                  by sam_sam_sam
                  I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

                  This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

                  After all of...

                  Are there any datasheets available for Elna RJG capacitors?
                  by Ady2017
                  I have a 2007-era Panasonic VHS combo that is full of of Elna RJG capacitors. I am trying to test the capacitors to diagnose the machine and then select replacement capacitors but I can not find any datasheets for them. I did find a Elna catalogue from 2007-2008 but there is no mention of this capacitor series. Where these specially made for Panasonic and so not made available to the public? Any ideas what to find out what the ESR values should be without the datasheets? They are all between 10V and 50V and 47uF and 1800uF. None are leaking or bulged but I know that they need to be tested to be...
