in my power supply its the first semiconductor that becomes defective, it must be the brand or its not a good quality, I need to buy a new one and solder it, is there any good brands out there or is it important?
NoTime said:If you have a switching power supply then the electrolytic must be rated for this application.
chrisalviola said:yes this is a swithing power supply for my pc, this means I can use a higher rated voltage for my capacitor? like >=10v but same rate of "uf", would this produce the same output voltage?
Some of the top-rated capacitor brands in the market include Panasonic, Vishay, KEMET, and Nichicon.
When selecting a capacitor brand, it is important to consider factors such as capacitance value, voltage rating, tolerance, and reliability. It is also recommended to choose a brand that has a good reputation in the industry.
Yes, there are several budget-friendly capacitor brands that offer high-quality products. Some examples include EPCOS, Rubycon, and Nippon Chemi-Con.
In general, it is not recommended to mix and match different capacitor brands in a circuit. This is because each brand may have slight variations in their specifications and could cause compatibility issues. It is best to use capacitors from the same brand for optimal performance.
Signs of a poor-quality capacitor brand include frequent failures, inconsistent performance, and high levels of leakage current. It is important to thoroughly research and choose a reputable brand to avoid these issues.
