Scrapping Monitors & TV's (Plastic & Glass) - Page 4

You mean the only ones that are not crystals are the two circular ones? The other 3 look like crystals. I am waiting to hear back from my local guy to see what he pays for the ICs and if they are all graded the same in this picture (the gold tab flat packs should be more imo).


I have also been saving the tantalum capacitors, are the black ones tantalums too?



Plus the monolithic ceramic capacitors, which have palladium and silver...how about the one on the top is that a capacitor? What kind?



Then I have transistors of all kinds, I think?

I know but the 1 that looks like a cylinder in the middle looks exactly like one of the crystals you posted.

Yep the large one came out of a radio I thought they were all transistors because of the heat sink mounting, did not realize ICs got hot like that but a transistor will never have more then 3 legs right?

I pulled some of these thinking they were ICs....very deceiving until you flip them over they just have those magnetic doughnuts wrapped in copper:




Then there is this...not sure what it is appears to contain some gold? The 80.000 makes me think it is a crystal of some sort?




I know that this is not a TV but I scrapped a DSL phone modem and I was surprise to see how easy you can pull away the plastic phone and ethernet jacks leaving gold plated wire, I had no idea that phone and internet jacks had gold plated wire in them!

Thanks, I think I found some gold in a TV box today actually!



I assume these are brass though:
