Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are widely used electric components, and they come with various properties and specifications. The 108CKS016M is one such capacitor, and it is designed for applications that require high capacitance and stringent temperature requirements. In this article, we will explore the 108CKS016M’s application fields and working principle.

Application Fields

The 108CKS016M aluminum electrolytic capacitors are designed for multiple applications. They are often used in high power audio amplifiers, switching power supplies, and LED applications, especially when high ripple current and extended temperature range are required. Due to their small size and large capacitance value, they are also often used in space-constrained circuits. In addition, the capacitors can also be used in other circuits such as power line filters, motor speed controls, and start-up delay circuits.

Working Principle

In general, aluminum electrolytic capacitors work on a similar principle to other electrolytic capacitors. They use a reversible chemical reaction to separate a positively charged metal oxide layer from a negatively charged aluminum electrode. This creates an electric dipole, with the aluminium side having a positive charge and the oxide side having a negative charge.

When a voltage is applied across the capacitor, a current is generated that passes through the electrolyte. This current reacts with the metal oxide, forming the oxide layer and giving it a positive charge. The positive charge on the oxide layer attracts electrons from the aluminium electrode, producing a negative charge on the electrode. This creates a static electric field between the two electrodes, and the capacitor stores energy as an electric field.

Ripple Current and Operating Temperature

Apart from capacitance value, ripple current and operating temperature are also important specifications for aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The 108CKS016M is designed to operate at extended temperatures up to -55℃ to 105℃, ensuring reliable operation in extreme temperatures. It also features a high ripple current to minimize power loss and thermal dissipation. The ripple current on the 108CKS016M is 1608 mA RMS, which is over 8 times of other commercial aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Conclusion

The 108CKS016M aluminum electrolytic capacitor is a versatile electric component, designed for various applications where high capacitance and extended temperature range are required. Its features include high ripple current, extended temperature range, and a large capacitance value. This makes it suitable for applications such as high power audio amplifiers, switching power supplies, and LED applications.
