Electrolytic SMD capacitors identification please

Hello there,

I’m trying to identify the brand and series of these three SMD capacitors. Any help please?

The below might seem a Panasonic FN but the marking does not match what the datasheet says it should be - also, Panasonic SMD caps have a much darker marker for whatever reason!
This should be a 10uF, 25V cap.

This should be a 100uf 25V

This should be a 1uF, 50V

Thank you!

Hello Tony359,

In regard to the 10uF 25V, I wasn’t able to verify the exact manufacturer for this. I did find the 10uF 25V, SMD capacitors linked HERE that make work in its place. You would want to verify sizes.

In regard to the 100uF 25V, it looks like it could be DigiKey part number 493-2190-1-ND. It is hard to read the text on that, but with this Nichicon, the time line is lot code with a temperature code as well. Second line should be capacitance. Bottom line should be voltage. The only difference I am seeing is that with this Nichicon part, they use ‘P’ to indicate temperatures up to 105 degrees Celsius.

In regard to the 1uF 50V, I did find the options linked HERE that may work as replacements. You would have to verify sizes.
Although the marking on this compared to the first one, makes me think they may be part of an SL series where top row is something like lot code, middle is capacitance, bottom is a letter to indicate voltage and SL for series. I do not see that we have an SL series of SMD capacitors, but that may be something worth looking into if you are looking for the exact parts.

Hello Nick,

Thanks for your kind assistance.

I think I found the SL series, it’s an obsolete Rubycon one. The marking matches the case

And I made a mistake, those 10uF are 35V, not 25V.

The 1uF is also the same series.

Thanks, I’d agree the 100uF could be that model, I was expecting a 125C for that one.

Thanks again!
