    Philips 37PFL7603 , Ballast capacitor question

    Hey guys ,

    Got this tv from a friend. Tv did not work anymore and after opening up the tv i noticed that a blue ballast capacitor was blown ( gone! :o )

    I removed the other 1 from the circuit and now the tv is working again but ofcourse this wont work for a long time because its missing those 2 capacitors.

    My question is , can i use a higher KV rating? The original is 22pf/6KV , can i use for example 10KV?
    Whats the best solution because the capacitor was GONE and i dont want that to happen again.....

    Capacitor C330 was gone , other 1 was black. Its now working without those 2 capacitors.

    Yes you can use a 10kv cap.

          Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition

          Title:
          Capacitor detached from PCB – RTX 2070 Super Founders Edition

          Description:
          During maintenance on an RTX 2070 SUPER Founders Edition, I found a capacitor lying on my desk after reassembly.
          I did not notice it detaching, so I am unsure of its original location on the PCB.

          Procedure performed:
          - Removed backplate
          - Cleaned heatsink and PCB with isopropyl alcohol + soft ESD brush
          - Reapplied thermal compound
          - Reassembled card

          Observed behavior after reassembly:
          - GPU powers on and operates normally under...

          RTX 3080 FE Identifying capacitor
          by Prolog
          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)

          I have found the board schematic (attached), but there does not seem to be a boardview available. I have never...

          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...
