Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are widely used due to their high energy density, low cost and good stability. The type 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20 is an application specific aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for applications that require a tight form factor and high reliability.

What is an Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor?

An aluminum electrolytic capacitor is a component that is made from a strip of aluminum foil that is rolled up into a series of layers, creating a sandwich like structure with alternating anode and cathode foils. The metal foil is then treated with an electrolyte solution. This creates an electric field between the two electrodes, called an electrolyte, which is used to store energy.

The type 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is designed to provide excellent performance in tight spaces. The capacitor is constructed using a high resistance cathode to anode distance of 12.5 millimeters, and a width of 20 millimeters. This allows the capacitor to fit in tight spaces where other, larger capacitors may not fit.

Working Principle

The type 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20 aluminum electrolytic capacitor works on the same principles as any other type of electrolytic capacitor. When an electric current is applied to the capacitor, ions from the electrolyte will move to the electrodes. This creates an electric field between the electrodes. The electric field helps store energy that can be used later when the capacitor is discharged.

The electric field in an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is created by an electrochemical reaction between the electrolyte and the anode of the capacitor. The electrolyte breaks down the aluminum oxide layer on the anode and the reaction creates an electric field. The higher the voltage, the stronger the electric field and the higher the capacity of the capacitor.

The type 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20 aluminum electrolytic capacitor has a maximum voltage rating of 125 volts and a maximum temperature range of -25 to +85°C. The device is also designed to have a low leakage current, ensuring excellent long-term performance and reliability.

Applications of the 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20

The 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is especially well suited for applications that require a small form factor. It is suitable for portable applications such as notebooks and handheld devices, where the capacitor must fit in a small space. The capacitor is also well suited for high reliability applications such as engine control modules, inverters and electric motors.

Due to its high voltage rating and low leakage current, the device is also suitable for more demanding applications such as LED lighting, power supplies and audio power amplifiers.

Conclusion

The type 160BXC68MEFC12.5X20 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is an application specific component that is designed for applications that require a tight form factor and high reliability. The capacitor works on the same principles as any other electrolytic capacitor, using an electrochemical reaction between the electrolyte and the anode of the capacitor to create an electric field. It has a maximum voltage rating of 125 volts and a maximum temperature range of -25 to +85°C. The device is well suited for applications such as portable devices, engine control modules, LED lighting, power supplies and audio power amplifiers.
