Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

The 16YK10000M18X35.5 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor. Also known as electrolytic capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are passive electronic components. Its major components are an anode aluminum foil, a paper spacer soaked with electrolyte, and a cathode aluminum foil with reversed aluminum oxide film made by anodization.

Application Field

Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors are widely used in applications such as power electronics, portable audio, medical equipment, energy-saving lighting, automotive electronics, and other fields. 16YK10000M18X35.5 is mainly used in power supplies, communication equipment, domestic appliances, inverters, and energy-saving lamps.

Working Principle

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are the most common type of capacitor in the world. Its working principle is similar to general capacitors, but its dielectric material is aluminum oxide film formed by the anodization on the surface of aluminum foil. Since the formation of the oxide film is irreversible, it can maintain a capacity of around 1/1000 of the initial value for a long time because of such characteristics as low resistivity, low structure dimension, and high dielectric strength.

Conclusion

Aluminum Electrolytic capacitors are widely used capacitors due to their high ability to store energy compared to its relatively small size. 16YK10000M18X35.5 is mainly used in power supplies, communication equipment, domestic appliances, inverters, and energy-saving lamps, as it has inherited the characteristics of aluminum electrolytic capacitors - low resistivity, low structure dimension, and high dielectric strength.
