Honestly, I want this motherboard to be my first board repair before I attempt any of the others that I currently have (especially that PlayStation 3 from earlier, those new capacitors being recommended as replacements for those faulty "Tonkin" caps are NOT cheap for that one).

In a real circuit, there are always resistances. In a theoretical circuit, though, having no resistances, you''ll get impossible situations like infinite current as u/vacabi mentions, and that causes problems (like divide by zero, etc.) in numerical simulations.. Simulating impossible scenarios isn''t as important as simulating things people could actually build, so rather than …
27 votes, 22 comments. true. That''s good advice. I''m a diesel tech and the amount of times people are like "I need the injectors replaced" because their truck starts like shit or burns oil or something, when in reality their glow plug relay is shot or something stupid like that, or their turbo oil seal is leaking
There''s protection boards on ebay, but Julian Ilett on has shown that they sometimes don''t act as they''re supposed to, often allowing the caps to go several hundred mV over their limit. There''s also the issue of reverse voltage while discharging near 0v. I thought to use a schottky diode and a resistor in parallel with each cap.
Unless you understand the capacitors function it''s always best to buy the same or as close as possible. Caps tend to have a bit of tolerance, anyway, so replacing a 550 uF cap (early …
Buying in lots of 10, 25, or 100 can save you money. For a repair shop or avid home hobbyist – these savings really add up. Mouser also ships individual components in handy plastic ziplock …
Newer stuff (80s and onward) that still use through-hole capacitors seem to use solid tantalum "Tantalex" style capacitors. Mil-spec M39003 to be precise. They are ridiculously expensive but surprisingly rugged and reliable, I maintain some equipment at work that uses a lot of these capacitors, many of which are exposed to high temperatures 24/ ...
Capacitors • Check for physical damage, leaks, bulges, or discoloration. Replace as required. • Clean capacitor case, insulation bushings, and any connectors that are dirty or corroded. • …
A decoupling capacitor should create a SHORT path for current surges between the Vcc and GND of the I.C. being decoupled. The capacitor should NOT connect to a different power rail compared to the I.C. otherwise the surge current travels in a wide inductive loop affecting the whole circuit. Here''s an image to illustrate this:

Make sure what you''re replacing are capacitors because I''ve seen that low effort blob shape used for all sorts of components. You''ll want to try and identify them by the letters and numbers on the side. You''re in for an adventure. Capacitor ID is.. it''s stupid.
Keep in mind that MLCC capacitors can drift in value depending on the voltage applied to them so you don''t want to go with excessively higher voltage parts. Some circuits don''t tolerate the very low ESR of non electrolytics either but this is unlikely to be an issue here. Just use caution when choosing a specific capacitor and you''ll be fine
Hi everyone, so I recently ended up with a couple of original PS3''s. They both have the YLOD issue. I''ve been reading about it and it seems like one fix is to replace the NEC Tokin capacitors with Tantalum ones, but looking at those capacitors they''re crazy expensive.
Y5V is a novelty joke dielectric that capacitor manufacturers sell to junior engineers who don''t yet know that capacitors aren''t all the same, to accelerate the learning process. And COG/NPO are what you use if you want a stable value. If you buy a lousy dielectric from a good manufacturer you get what you ordered and not a quality capacitor.

In-sync requires you to keep shooting within 5s to keep up the buff. With Capacitor you it takes almost a minute to fully decay. In-Sync is 30% or perfect and 40% Skill Damage, Capacitor is 60% In-sync gives you. 30% buff or 40% for WD on proc. Capacitor is +45% all the time; enabling some crazy good hybrid build setups.
I''ve done recaps for about 15 GameCubes, specifically the optical board. This newest repair has me a bit stumped. I''ve installed all new caps and it still didn''t read so I just figured it was also a worn laser. Installed the laser and still wasn''t getting discs to read. The C408 capacitor is reading bad somehow despite the new cap.
It seems all those capacitors are on 5v, look what it says on them, if it says 6.3v or 10v, then 100 percent they''re filtering 5v. Having so many go bad can be a sign that the power supply has started to fail and outputs a bad quality 5v voltage - …
This is a coca cola mini fridge in which the power supply failed. I read on a few forums that these mini coolers are notorious for failed capacitors that render the 120vac to 12vdc power supply useless in a short amount of time and that the best way to repair them is to look for a faulty capacitor and replace them.
So I''d look up replacement capacitors for " 5ku25 270 16 volt capacitor" and then the small one I''d do the same for but I can''t exactly make out what it says on the top of it bc the photo isn''t a high enough quality and seems like it may have …
(like in the exaple: the total capacitance is 5uF. Can I replace all the capacitors with one 10uF capacitor?) 3: Some power capacitors are like a 4.7uF and a 100nF between 5V and 0V. The total is 4.8uF, and the 100nF capacitor is like 2% of the total capacitance, or if is a 10nF, 0.2% of the total capacitance. Can I ignore it?
Much, much lower resistance. As soon as there is any load on this thing, it will drop voltage and cause distortion immediately. This design is extremely rudimentary and it works to make a voltage reference but it is terrible for doing any actual work.. That 1k ohm power supply resistance is a killer and absolutely unacceptable for any application where you care about the end result.
IMO, the OP should be probably take it to a local electronics repair shop. You may have to look around to find a place but you should be able to find one. Reply ... Those appear to be aluminum electrolytic capacitors. When you go to Mauser or did your key that will be one of your keywords. If you are unsure of the tolerance that you need, I ...

I''m not superstitious or obsessing over them lol. I was just curious as I opened it up to noticed that some of the capacitors are bent. Separate form this, I was looking up issues with horizontal linearity and multiple sources pointed to …
It should actually work without them, although it might need slightly higher voltage. Since it doesn''t, can you check if any of the damaged pads are shorted? Also I like the suggestion in that link of checking if the top left part is a series inductor. While losing a parallel capacitor is ok, the inductor may be required for a voltage rail.
Gateway had a beautiful 24" lcd monitor with that a bad power supply… I replaced all the caps and was very careful to make sure each was aligned (polarity) correctly and such… fired it up only to find out other damage had already been done to a logic board.
