Many thanks, just ordered...

Re: Caps reading over uF

Much appreciated Wizard! I was looking at some kits and the Blue ESR meter looks like a good choice, unless.. I.. should.. get the.. Capacitor "Wizard".....

Hi all, I was able to get some great help on the forums about a month ago. Just looking for a little more, as I am currently stumped and having trouble locating information. It was on the LG MU-42PM11 tv and I got replacement 33uF/25v caps for the Ysus/Zsus boards. I have 2 locations on the Ysus board that are reading incorrectly. If the caps are tested off of the board they read within range of 33uF, if they are placed in these specific locations I am reading 500uF on one, and 120uF on the other. No matter which Ysus board, as I have quite a few that I am working with. Don't understand this concept....

Also, got one of the old ones off the board, it measures, 6cm, so would that not be 30mm (diameter.) Wish they had a digital caliper up here

Re: Cap Identification help on LG plasma

Alright, my next question would be, tolerance. The people attempting to help me at digikey/mouser have said that the F stands for ~1% tol. I am new to the capacitor field, so I am guessing a 10-20% is okay to slap in there?

Here is a pic of the new capacitor


And here is one of the old...

Re: Cap Identification help on LG plasma

Alright, well I am pretty sure there are no other markings on it. I'll see about taking 2 boards home tonight and getting some pictures. There isn't sufficient lighting here. Thanks for your help

Re: Cap Identification help on LG plasma

As I know it is, ha. Problem is, is that I can't get a good picture with works camera, even though it's a 10MP. I'm not sure if this will work, but we'll see. This is what it looks exactly... besides the text ...

Hello all, first time poster, probably not the last, I am having trouble identifying some caps on a power board for an LG MU-42PM11. I have an old board with original cap, and a new board with replaced caps, which are a bit smaller. They are SMD aluminum around the 5-7mm range. They are 1/3 covered on top with black the old ones have the markings S0073, 33, 25F. The new ones have the markings 33, 25S., 8Z2. Now I think I am safe in assuming that these are 33uF and 25V, but that all I've come up with. Wasn't sure if anyone would be able to identify manufacturer and tolerance levels? Thanks in...
