Title: -Amiga Capacitors
Post by: Drummerboy on October 27, 2016, 07:19:37 AM

Hello,

What do you think about this kind of capacitor to Amiga's recap?

Regards.

Looks like your average electrolyte capacitor. What's about it? If the capacitance fits, and the voltage rating is correct, it should work.

Yeah, it'll work, but there are good quality ones and bad quality ones. Perhaps that's what the OP meant.

If this is for an A500, 2000 or 3000 maybe but not a surface mount on the 4000 or 1200/600 boards!

Is this capacitor style.


I know with capacitance fits, and the correct voltage ratings.

Will work fine, I used this type for all my recapping of A600/A1200/A4000/CD32 machines.
Just make sure to solder them as close to the PCB as possible.
