    Replacing capacitor in powersupply for satelitte receiver

    I have 68uF at 400V that went bad and also have new 100uF 400V handy.
    Will I be OK if I do this repolacement?

    fine - better than the original.

    i hope it's all you need, it's rare for those to fail - but when they do you often have other parts damaged afterwards.

      Great, thanks for the response. There was visible problem, one of the leads was disconnected from the capacitor and the top was bulged. I will do install of new one tonight.

        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,...

        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...

        Replacing capacitor in Original Xbox Foxlink Power Supply
        by cybernet3000
        Hello all,

        Got a bit of a noob question - I have an original XBox revision 1.0 with a Foxlink FTPS-0001 Rev B psu. I've already removed the infamous clock capacitor and I'm planning on replacing the caps around the big heat sink (Thanks to everyone who contributed to that massive thread for pointing me in the right direction) but I also noticed on the PSU there's one large cap that seems to be bulging a little. It is cap C19 and from my googling I've been able to determine it's a 2200 uF 10 V capacitor.

        My questions are:
        1) Can I just replace this with any...

        Should I replace polymer capacitor?
        by chth96
        a few days ago I finally purchased mser-100 v2 and I tested its abillity of measuring ESR value.
        I found that It shows pretty accurate ESR value for electrolytic capacitor,But When I measure polymer capacitor of dreamcast game console,I found that one third of polymer capacitor's ESR value is more than twice the value of ESR meter table.(for example, I measured one polymer capacitor of 6.3v 100uf, It showed ESR value of 7.68)
        Although my dreamcast now turns 20 years old but it still works. I occasionally have played game with it.
        Is this ESR value of polymer capacitor correct?...
