Thanks Davenn,
So do I consider .33uF too high capacitance compared to .003uF and that the cap is faulty.
you misunderstand
forget about the .33uF, it doesnt exist, the capacitor you showed us is a .033uF you had misread the value. see my explanation in the other posting.
edit...
ummmm if your capacitance meter actually read .33uF, that would be a bit suprising
I would recheck that make sure its "Zero'ed" correctly etc see if you have some other caps around that you can read the values of and see if they come close to the value written on those caps.... just as a test of the cap meter's accuracy
Now as Steve stated you are not likely to get a reliable ESR reading on that capacitor as its value is too low for an ESR meter to give a correct reading.
the cap doesnt look physically damaged and chances are its probably ok
What made you suspect this cap initially that made you remove it from the circuit board ?
cheers
Dave
