A means it's rated at 10 volts.

335 means 33 x 105 PicoFarads. :y

If you type EPCOS into the search box

then click "ceramic" under capacitors

then highlight 3.3uf and click "apply filters"

you can see a list of specifications that might help ??

bit longwinded I know .. but thats how that site works .. :(

3.3uF 10V Epcos Tant Capacitor. (so beware of the polarity)

Epcos (used to be siemens from memory) are the shittest capactors out there....had many a fire due to them!

Its probably a de-coupling cap and I see there is also a ceramic in parralel (probably of either 100nf or 10nf capactiy).

Hmm the same colour one didn't work, probably not the correct value, does anyone have the correct value?

I can pay by Paypal

Thanks
