Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

The 160YXF12KEFCT78X11.5 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, which are a type of capacitor produced using aluminum foil, an electrolyte and a paper separator. This type of capacitor offers a high level of capacitance over other forms, and are commonly used as small, lightweight filters for audio applications, energy storage (for voltage regulation) and some RF applications.

Application Field

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors provide a wide range of use in many different applications. They are used in power supply filtering, signal smoothing, noise reduction, and decoupling circuits. Many medical, automotive, and industrial electronics use electrolytic capacitors for high frequency and high density applications.

In low voltage audio applications, these capacitors are used to filter any high frequency noise from the signal, which can have a \'hissing\' noise if left unfiltered. These capacitors can also be used for smoothing the DC power supply, preventing ripple and other unwanted voltages from entering the system and affecting the quality of the audio.

It is common to see aluminum electrolytic capacitors in RF applications, due to their ability to reduce interference and minimize losses due to impedance matching. They are commonly used in RF base stations, antennas, and various other RF components.

High voltage applications, such as motor control and power converter circuits, may require a large electrolytic capacitor to keep the system operating at a constant voltage. In these applications, the capacitor will typically take up the bulk of the power supply, and will need to be at least 90% efficient.

Working Principle

The working principle of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is fairly simple. Aluminum is used as the positive electrode, while an electrolyte is used as the negative electrode. The two electrodes are separated by an insulating paper separating layer. When a voltage is applied across the two electrodes, the electrons flow through the electrolyte and cause the positive charge at the aluminum electrode to increase.

The increased positive charge causes the surrounding molecules of aluminum to become attracted to each other. As the chemical bonds between the aluminum molecules get stronger, it creates an electric field between the two electrodes. This electric field is what allows the capacitor to store electrical energy, and this is the basic working principle of all aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Due to their high capacitance, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are ideal for many applications where high energy storage and filtering abilities are needed. They are convenient to use, affordable, and relatively easy to maintain.
