Purchase List for Xbox Capacitors (Mouser)

[Sam Houston]

I've been working on these files. A few are finished, and I plan to make one for each revision of Xbox, along with many of the DVD drives and PSUs.

You can import these files into Mouser's website. The capacitors are properly spec'd, and the quantities are already listed.

If anyone happen to notice anything I could improve, please let me know! I tried my best to pick the highest quality, best fitting components.

Attached are the lists I have completed so far. If anyone has lists of their own for the other revisions, Drives, or PSUs I would be interested in seeing them.

Thanks all! GLHF

FWIW I use EEU-FR0J332L for the CPU caps on all the boards and fill the extra empty spaces as well on 3 cap boards.

You get 10,000 hrs endurance compared to yours at 7,000 hrs and they are the original size 10x25mm. Low ESR and high 2.5a ripple cap.
Been using them for years from (RS/Digikey/Mouser) only.

you need something like this to desolder them

That's an amazing trick, thank you!

 

Edit: I checked my list, I chose the 667-EEU-FM1A332B just because of the higher ripple current. I don't understand ripple current, and just assumed bigger is better, but time is certainly more important. And I'm assuming that 2.5a is probably already overspec'd. I will switch the list to include the     EEU-FR0J332L instead.

Is it ok to purchase the EEU-FR0J332LB?

I don't see the difference, but it's 20 cents cheaper.

The ripple current spec is the ability of the capacitors capacity to reduce the amount of ripple in the voltage at max 2.5a. So these cope with upto 2.5a each which is well above what we need. Since I fill all 5 positions it gives 5x this.

Also, when capacitors are in parallel, it lowers the equivalent series resistance, ESR. Which means with all 5 in there you get even better performance.

Fit these. No point trying to save cents/pennies on anything else at this price point.
