Working Principle

An aluminum - polymer capacitor works as an electrical current storage device. The device is able to store electrical charges on its combination of electrode parts. When a voltage is applied on the device, it polarizes the dielectric material, which creates an electric field in the capacitor. This electric field causes a change in the capacitor\'s capacitance. The amount of capacitance change is determined by the amount of charge transferred between the electrodes.

The 106XMPL012MG19 aluminum - polymer capacitor is capable of providing higher capacitance values at high temperatures and holding a stable voltage in presence of ripple currents. Its combination of polymer films with higher electrical insulation and aluminum anode films make it an ideal choice for automotive and power management applications.
