Changing the uf of the cap is a bad idea. It does not relate to power consumption like a resistor. Worst case senario is that it will not function properly and the circuit it is in may not work. For ps filtering too small a uf value will give poor regulation of the voltage. |

I don't Want to change the uF, i Want to replace what was broken.. I feel stuck now. :( |
| BobA:
So why not try a 22 uF |
| boardjunkie:
Its likely not critical (the value), and anything 16v or more is fine. Space Invader boards are triple supply, IE +5, -5, +12v. Thats the highest voltage anything on that board will ever see. Since its tantalum, its just providing local filtering. The green ones are bypass caps to get rid of the spikes that a logic gate creates when it changes states. Here's an idea.....get the manual for that version, find that part in the parts list, and replace it with what it says goes there and quit obsessing over it..... |

Got parts, soldered til my eyes where soar. - TOKI is up and running. Only needs a cab now. - Space Invaders won't boot after replacing the C2 (22uF 25V) cap. When turning the cab on the PSU LED (A brand new PSU btw!) does not turn green, which it does with my other games Any idea why? |
