====== Panasonic ====== ===== Electrolytics ===== The [[https://na.industrial.panasonic.com/products/capacitors/aluminum-electrolytic-capacitors/lineup/aluminum-electrolytic-capacitors-radial-lead-type/series/83482|Panasonic FC series]] seem to be favored among builders. You can recognize them by their royal blue color with golden band. They are also available in SMD form factor. ==== Part numbers ==== The explanation of part numbers can be found here: * https://api.pim.na.industrial.panasonic.com/file_stream/main/fileversion/2831 (radial) * https://industrial.panasonic.com/cdbs/www-data/pdf/RDE0000/DME0000COL90.pdf (SMD) So for instance a 47µF capacitor rated at 25V would have the part number EEUFC1E470: * Series: EEUFC * Voltage rating: 1E (25V) * Capacitance: 470 (47µF) The part number could be followed by two extra identifiers: * Lead forming: * Blank (straight) * E (lead forming) * Taping: * B (5mm or 7.5mm pitch) * H (2.5mm pitch)
