M mjunaid61 New Member Oct 11, 2011 #1 I have a tantalum SMD capacitor whose code is 106A 25E73 where according to my interpretation 106=10uF , A = 10V Can any body tell me what does the whole term mean??

Mikebits Well-Known Member Oct 11, 2011 #2 What you have is 10 and the 6 denotes 6 zeros so you have 10,000000 pF or 10uF. See link for more details. https://www.4crawler.com/Diesel/CheapTricks/Tachometer/Capacitor.html

Mr RB Well-Known Member Oct 13, 2011 #4 10uF in 25v is a common size. Maybe the 25 stands for 25v? You could compare it's physical size to a 10uF 25v cap and that will give a good idea of its voltage rating.
