This is a widely known problem with the roots in the urban legend: Devices with mader boards fail in the early 2000s with a sudden pop, a horrible spread, or sometimes flames. And it was allegedly due to a boy who did not copy the stolen formula properly.
In the early 2000s, “Capestator plague” was real and quite wide in devices, even if the majority of these devices were not damaged at the same time or even the same year. The story of this widespread failure, after passing between internal stories and media reports of the industry, was a special criminal, but also a broad story about the change in Taiwan manufacturers from Japanese and generally outsourcing.
The Asianometry Channel on YouTube recently “I diged”Capster plague“In a video that asks,”What happened with Capestitors in 2002? “And it comes for some informed, wide and layered answers. It explains the details of what is happening within both the working capacitors and the faulty models, the companies refrain from reporting about the accusation and the affected companies, and, importantly, hot chips, complicated supplies, and some of the industrial chains.
“We’ll never know what’s happened at all, but let’s try,” the host says initially. It is recommended that you go along.

“What happened to Capestters in 2002?” By Asianometry.
Without producing too much video and large myths, the basic story is that, according to various controversial timelines, electrolyteic capacitors failed in electronics between 1999 and 2003, or more failed since 2002 (perhaps) 2007. Boards and computers were purchased from ABIT, HP, IBM, and. The infamous, dealAmong others, these faulty capacitors were encountered and they were handled in memories, repairs, or sometimes quietly.
A finely balanced cocktail
“Less equivalent series resistanceIn the issue of “or” low -opin “aluminum capacitors, there was an electrolyte solution that worked as a cathode while doing its job and wasting the two files inside the rolled up capacitor. The wider volatility of voltageIt became a cheap, popular ingredient in many devices.
