Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

The 100YXG390MEFCGC18X25 is a type of aluminum electrolytic capacitor. As its name suggests, aluminum electrolytic capacitors contain two plates made of aluminum foil and an electrolyte solution. This solution is used to store electric charge that allows the capacitor to control current flow.

Compared to ceramic and tantalum capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors have three key advantages. First, they have higher capacitance (that is, more charge stored per unit area). Second, aluminum electrolytic capacitors have a larger volume, which allows them to store more charge. Third, they also have higher temperature stability than the other two types.

The 100YXG390MEFCGC18X25 is used in various applications. It is commonly found in power supplies, audio amplifiers, digital circuits, and other power-supply systems where higher capacitance and voltage are needed. It can also be used in medical equipment such as MRI and CT scanners, as well as in aerospace equipment.

The working principle of the 100YXG390MEFCGC18X25 is relatively simple. First, an electric current is applied between the two electrolyte plates. Then, the electrolyte solution reacts with the aluminum foil plates, forming an insulator. This insulator stores the current, thus creating a capacitor. Finally, the current runs through the capacitor back into the source, completing the cycle.

The most important feature of the 100YXG390MEFCGC18X25 is its low leakage. This is because the process of forming the capacitance reduces the rate of electrolyte leakage, thus increasing the life and stability of the capacitor. Additionally, the electrolyte solution used in the capacitor is resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environments.

In summary, the 100YXG390MEFCGC18X25 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor. Thanks to its high capacitance, voltage, and temperature stability, it is used in many applications, such as power supplies, medical equipment, and aerospace equipment. Its working principle is relatively simple: an electric current is applied between the two plates, then the electrolyte solution forms an insulator that stores the current, finally the current runs back into the source completing the circuit.
