i have 2 cards that are exactly the same. On one of them this capacitor blew completely (it even ruined a top layer of the PCB) So i was able to take this picture of the SMD capacitor, but i am not able to read it. SMD capacitors should contain more data, like the voltage. On this case i can only see C 10u
, cap is located on the edge of the card pcb

does anyone know how to read this type of cap? voltage and uf ?

Do the markings say C 10µ 9809?

C is the voltage rating, meaning 16V.

So, 16V 10µF?

Yes, 16V 10µF. I'm not sure what the package size is but the pads are large enough to fit pretty much anything, even small things.
