i need help to identify the following capacitors

This seems to be a 33µF at 100V but iam not sure. 1st Capacitor

I cant identify this one. What does the small letter at the end(maybe a F) mean? 2nd Capacitor

    \$\begingroup\$ looks like 33uF 100V for the top one and 100uF 16V for the bottom \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 7, 2017 at 0:33
  • \$\begingroup\$ Why -- are you trying to replace them? They look perfectly fine to me. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @duskwuff The picture is from a monitor controler board. The monitor is flickering until it finaly stays on.The first cap is minimal inflated, but the rest of the board seems to be ok. \$\endgroup\$

The markings on this type of capacitors usually are:

  • The rated capacitance in μF (33μF for the first and 100μF for the second capacitor)
  • The rated voltage in V (100V for the first and 16V for the second capacitor)
  • A code indicating the group number / series code (it's the "V" on the first capacitor and the "F" on the second)
  • Either date code (usually two digits) or some lot number identification, or maybe both. This is not so well defined, as far as I know.

Unfortunately I am not sure if you can find out just from these markings the manufacturer of the capacitors. But the rated capacitance and voltage information should be 33μF/100V and 100μF/16V.
