16YXM100MEFCTA6.3X11 applications field and working principle

The 16YXM100MEFCTA6.3X11 aluminum electrolytic capacitor belongs to the polymer electrolytic capacitor, which specially designed for use in automotive power systems. It is composed of a cylindrical metal casing, a paper inner sleeve, an anode electrode connected with the inner paper sleeve, a cathode foil, polarizing end plates, aluminum oxide films, and a paper bottom cover. The anode electrode is made of aluminum foil with a thickness of 15-25 microns and a diameter of 10 mm. The cathode foil is made of an aluminum foil and a special electrolyte. The polarized end plate is made of an electrolyte and a catalytic agent. The anode and cathode are punched in the shape of a cone and then wound with a separator.

The working principle of the 16YXM100MEFCTA6.3X11 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is the same as any other electrolytic capacitor. It is made up of two alternating conductive surfaces (anode and cathode) separated by a thin aluminum oxide (Al2O3) layer. Under the action of an applied voltage, the Al2O3 layer serves as the dielectric medium, allowing the flow of current in the anode to cathode direction of the capacitor. The anode aluminum foil has an acidic coating composed of oxidizing agents, hydroxides, and acetic acid-ammonium acetate that is sensitive to moisture and is responsible for forming the semiconductor-like Al2O3 dielectric layer. The electrolyte acts as a connector between the anodes and the cathode. At the same time, the electrolyte is also used to provide stability for the same charge level of the polarized end plate and the anode.

Due to its large capacitance and good electric characteristics, the 16YXM100MEFCTA6.3X11 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is most suitable for automotive power applications. With its small size and lightweight, it is able to provide high levels of ripple current and discharge rates for reliable and durable operation. Its high capacitance-to-volume ratio makes it a perfect choice for use in applications such as power factor correction, boost converters, dc-dc converters, automotive power supply, lights, displays, and other areas.

In addition, the 16YXM100MEFCTA6.3X11 aluminum electrolytic capacitor has other properties like low-impedance, ripple current capabilities, high temperature, and high voltage capability that make it the ideal choice for many high-power application. The capacitor is also capable of handling high voltage spikes and surges when used in different kinds of automotive and industrial applications. Furthermore, it also has a higher capacitance than other types of capacitors due to the electrolyte used in its construction. The aluminum electrolytic capacitor is also resistant to corrosion and environmental influences, which helps ensure a long life span.
