Capacitor that looks like a resistor?

<< < (6/7) > >>

Harb:
R26 is easy, its 0 ohms .......although there may be some resistance at the left hand end  ;)

Brumby:
I always smile at "zero" ohm resistors.

They are all outside any percentage tolerance ... unless they are really, really cold.

bson:
It probably doesn't matter if it's 33pF or 82pF... the factory probably just used whatever happened to be cheaper the day they placed the order. :)

Similarly, I doubt it matters much what it's replaced with, and 47pF would probably also work just dandy.

Skyfox:
R26 is 0? because this board is made for NTSC.  If it was made for a PAL system it would have been a 100? resistor.  A couple other components would have been different, too.

Architect:
Just yesterday I was baffled when my LCR tester said that what I thought was a 8.2 Ohm resistor was in fact a 8.2 pF capacitor. Much the same experience as "Nelson Derks" described in "Mystery Capacitor Type" in eham.net.

Anyway, I have several of these creatures in the values 8.2 pF, 39 pF, 68 pF, 330 pF and 1.5 nF.  So if anyone needs a few, just drop me a line.
