  • Re: Identifying Proper Replacement Caps...?

    Replaced the who enchilada... and it works perfectly! Got lucky... I had nothing to practice on, so my first cap was done live!

    My soldering iron is old and bent to crap and I used plumber's flux paste... but it works. And it even looks like I knew what I was doing.

    One question; There was one cap that was horizontal... I put it in vertical... big deal? There are no clearance issues or anything else that would show this as being a problem...

    I looked at those... but I noticed that the ripple and the impedance was no where near the KZE. That was what I thought I should base my replacement choice on......

    Good man PCBONEZ!

    I have been messing around going between the data sheet and digikey's website trying to figure this all out..

    The only things (I think) that I am not certain about is the "Series". Does this matter? I would think that the "GL" series is a proprietary thing. That being said, then series doesn't matter much... right?

    The other is the impedance translation; On the spec sheet at CapXon, my Cap 220uF rated 25volt 8x11.5 gives me 0.125 impedance. How does that...

    You know... I am not feeling any brighter.

    I see some possibilities of what I am looking for through the process of elimination... but I am really not certain.

    I have no idea what the impedance is on these caps... I do not know what ripple is nor how to find out what ripple I need.

    I appreciate showing me the link to the data sheet, and I am not looking to be spoon fed... but I am lost. I didn't know that there was so many variants between caps.

  • Identifying Proper Replacement Caps...?

    Hello all!

    Awesome site! You guys are all awesome with your self sufficiency and obvious bravery in sticking a 450C chunk of metal in your sensitive and often expensive electronic bits!!!

    Love it!

    I am working on an IBM ThinkVision 19 inch LCD monitor. I got it for free from work.

    The symptoms;
    Plug it in to the wall and the unit's "splash screen" (It says IBM ThinkVision when the monitor powers up) strobes slowly; one image pulse for about a half second every 5 or 7 seconds.

    Makes no difference if there...
