Hello everyone.
I am puzzled about a capacitor that I have..I bought recently a lot of pcb's with parts..
One part I can't figure out is a axial electrolytic capacitor..At least I assume that it is..

The makings are:
Phillips 021 K0
J8 100 uM/ 40 volts
Can someone help me figure out what kind of strange thing this is? It is in the supply part of one of the pcb's, right after a 100 nF Ceramic, and before a 1N4001 rectifier diode..
Here is an image...[

Hi

I think the capacitor is probably 100uF. The 'M' sufix means +/- 20% tolerance - see http://www.electronics2000.co.uk/data/i ... pmarks.php. As you say it is an axial electrolytic.

Hi Simon,

Thank you for your fast reply...

TheDoc,
Thank you so much...I bought a lot of pcb's with optocouplers and other parts..This capacitor is almost the same...
Thank you again....
