How can I replace and old decoupling cap?
How can I replace and old decoupling cap?
(OP)
I have an old Atari computer (1980) that has two 4700uF three lead electrolytic de-coupler caps on the power supply board. The computer has been in the attic for 35 years and these caps are bad. I've checked with several major parts supply companies (Mouser, Digikey) and they said good luck finding those caps!
The caps are: Nippon Chemi-com CE04W 4700uF 16v caps. Anyone have any idea?
Thanks for any help,
David

I can't say I've ever seen a 3-term cap in person, but I know they exist. But at that high of a capacitance? Hmmm....
