Title: C34 Film Capacitor Placement
Post by: musicarr on June 22, 2025, 11:53:15 PM

Hi,

The C34 Film Capacitor has two pins, but the PCB has three holes. Which holes should the capacitor go in?

Also, just want to confirm that the "WIMA 0,47 100-" is indeed the C34 capacitor. Is that correct?

Thanks.

It fits into the 2 holes on the left that best match the cap size. The PCB can accept a larger capacitor.

WIMA 0,47 100 is the right cap.
