How bad are the "bad capacitors manufacturers"?
I have seen so many companies with weird capacitors, usually with horrible specs, from companies like ChengX, AsiaX (these two are ubiquitous in more common models …
8.2: Capacitors and Capacitance
A capacitor is a device used to store electrical charge and electrical energy. It consists of at least two electrical conductors separated by a distance. (Note that such electrical conductors are sometimes referred to as …
The Best Electrolytic Capacitors
Not rumors, not speculation, but pure data results to find the best electrolytic capacitors! You will find all the related theory behind the testing procedure I use and the …
Most and Least Reliable Electrolytic Capacitors
I''m planning to replace them with SLPX682M100H9P3 by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE), which I hear makes good capacitors. It is 35x50mm and I am not sure if I …
The Best Capacitor Brands
Not only do they provide top quality products, but their customer service team is also second to none, meaning you can always trust your capacitor needs are in good hands. …
Capacitors, the GOOD, the BAD & the UGLY
Just look at the capacitor uF values in the far right column and how they range broadly over the freq. range. Also note the extreme waviness to the blue phase angle line in …
How good are Cornell-Dubilier capacitors?
Re: How good are Cornell-Dubilier capacitors? CDE does not make low ESR caps, so don''t go looking for any for the output side. Those, however, are excellent for the …

What is your opinion about this brands of capacitors?
These brands are very good but less popular and expensive (except wurth) and what''s stocked at distributors is often not very suited for computer repairs. Epcos is in the …
Comparing "Good" SMT Capacitors
This is an excellent idea for a thread, and good research, Stellar. For distortion, voltage coefficient is the most important capacitor spec. Most of the time you are compensating the VAS of a power amplifier, so the voltage swing …
