    Help with Insignia/Dynex NS-L46Q120-10A

    Hello as you can see this is my first post and like many it is asking for help. I have an Insignia/Dynex NS-L46Q120-10A with a bad capacitor on the power board. I have found the bad capacitor and it is marked PS474K. I understand it to be a .47uf capacitor with 10% tolerance but I don't know the voltage and it is not listed on the capacitor. It is marked c400 on the board next to the capacitor. I cannot find schematics for this board anywhere on the web. Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Can we see a picture of the capacitor in question?

        What lettering is there on the capacitor? Can you type it all up for us to help decode.

            Good one. Ya got me...

            If I were to make an estimation (more likely to be too high than too low...) The capacitor there couples the drive into the inverter transformers. Given that the PSU probably uses active PFC, it operates on around 400V. Therefore, the capacitor should be rated to a minimum of 400V. I would say 630V, 800V or 1kV would be fine: higher is better.

              I agree with Tom, I would use 630V or higher.

                Thanks for taking the time to help me out. I am looking at capacitors online and the ones over 400v are larger in dimension. The current one is approx 16mm with lead width of 15mm. Most of the 630v+ are 26mm width.

                  Is that too big to fit into the board?

                      It would fit on the board, I guess I could bend the leads to fit the seat width.

                                    This issue is confirmed with my Insignia NS-L46Q120-10A as well. Replaced the capacitor and it fired right up. Thanks for all the great information.

                                    FYI. Determining this capacitor was bad was as easy as measuring the voltages going into the LCD inverter board. If everything else is functioning properly on this TV and you are getting all the correct voltages, then this cap is likely the issue.

                                      Hi people, I hope this is the correct spot to post this, I'm new to the forum.

                                      I have an RTX 3080 Founders Edition which has a burnt up capacitor (it was in parallel with another capacitor which appears damaged too), so I am hoping to be able to identify the capacitor values and order replacements.

                                      I hope these photos make it clear which component I am referring to:
                                      (yes, the soldering is a bit botched from removing the blown one, I know)

                                      If I replace with inferior capacitor, Is it No harm to other IC components at all?

                                      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...

                                      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?

                                      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...

                                      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?...
