Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors, due to their relatively small size, low cost, and low equivalent series resistance (low ESR), are the most popular type of capacitor used today. Their temperature coefficients are also low, making them suitable for use in a wide range of applications. While they are not as reliable as some other types of capacitors, they are widely used in both analog and digital circuits.

100USG1500MEFCSN20X40 Application Field and Working Principle

The 100USG1500MEFCSN20X40 is a type of aluminum electrolytic capacitor that is designed for a wide range of general-purpose applications. It can be used for applications such as power supplies, DC power lines, automotive applications, and other applications that require a high ripple current and low ESR. The primary benefit of using this type of capacitor is that it provides a high capacitance in a small package.

The working principle of this type of capacitor is based on a phenomenon known as electrolytic polarization. This occurs when an electric current is passed through an electrolyte between two metal plates of different materials. The current causes the formation of an oxide film on one of the plates, which acts as an insulator between the two metal plates. This oxide film acts as a dielectric and allows capacitance to be formed between the two plates. Over time, the oxide film grows thicker and the capacitance increases.

The voltage rating for this type of capacitor is 100V, and its capacitance is 1500µF with a 20mm diameter and 40mm length. It has a working temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and a voltage coefficient of -15%. It is also RoHS compliant and can be used in a variety of circuits.

The 100USG1500MEFCSN20X40 is a good general-purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor and is suitable for use in a variety of applications. Its high capacitance and small size make it a good choice for use in power supplies, DC power lines, automotive applications, and other applications that require a high ripple current and low ESR.
