    Toshin Kogyo Japan Caps Distributed by Ost

    Something interesting forwarded to me by Spectre. We found Toshin Kogyo LGW series primaries in a Topower PSU. Their logo is TK. The company has being going on since 1950.

    Toshin Kogyo has retained Ost as their Global Marketing Partner presumably to get them into the taiwan IT market.

      I have seen brown TK caps on Asus and Biostar boards lately.

          interesting. perhaps they will be seen more often. hopefully not in the trash cans of repair technicians.

                  I assume Toshin Kogyo =/= Tosin?
                  You know there's something wrong when you open up a PSU and are glad to find Teapos.
                  Why I don't buy cheap cases!

                      There is another jonny commented on, Koshin, Made by Koshin Electronics Co., located in the Koshin Valley of Japan.

                      They have a Chinese Division called Shenzhen Koshin that uses Japanese components and assermbly is done in China. These caps will most likely be found in the new Ultra X2 PSUs.

                              I have seen those strange TK kaps on some boards and may be in some PSu`s if my memory serves me right.
                              I have tried to get a datasheet for them, but to no avail. May be this will shed some light on them. If there is an Japanes QS consultant i have no problem with caps assembled in China.
                              I have no doubth, that if the people in charge want to produce seriouse and quality caps, they can do it in every country of the world.

                                      This is true, i knew this for a few months ago. Epox's mothbaords is always used with TK's polymers recently.

                                              TOSIN is not the same i think. actually Fuhjyyu history mentions :

                                              1997 Shenzhen LICON Factory got the ISO-9002 certificate and technically cooperated with japanese Tosin company, which improved our quality a lot.

                                                  I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

                                                  For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

                                                  Hello,

                                                  First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

                                                  I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

                                                  I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."

                                                  Hello!

                                                  I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

                                                  The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

                                                  I have studied the board and...

                                                  I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
                                                  I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...

                                                  by Foetuss
                                                  Good evening

                                                  I recently aquired a rev 1.1 Gigabyte 60XT, and was suprised of the amount of leaking caps for a motherboard of the P3 era. Especially the way the 330µf caps seems like the housing discolored even.
                                                  Now, there are some 3300µF 6.3V KZG series around the CPU. Would it be OK to replace them with something like EEUFR1A332 ? (Panasonic FR 3300µF 10V). Or was this board designed around very low ESR caps?

                                                  But I was also suprised about the bigger boys, which are 330µF 25V.
                                                  Could it be they used 25V caps because they were cheaper / available at that time?...
