Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

The 380LQ682M050J022 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, one of many available on the market today. It is a non-polarized capacitors, meaning that it has a two-wire connection, with one lead to a cathode and one lead to an anode. It is a solid-wet aluminum electrolytic capacitor, a type optimized for holding charge, ideal for applications such as DC-DC and AC-DC converters, and frequency use.

The dimensions of this capacitor are 7.3 x 5.2 x 10.8 mm, making it compact and easy to use in a large variety of applications. This is especially true considering this type of capacitor works well in high frequency and temperature conditions. A working temperature of -55 to +105 degrees celsius can be expected for this device to give optimal performance.

Construction and Working Principle

The construction of the capacitor is relatively simple and is capable of passing high frequency signals. In relation to its size and weight, it offers a high capacitance value of 680uF, a voltage of 6.3V. This provides a good capacitive ripple at high frequency. The construction of the capacitor is a solid type, composed of a cylindrical anode, an electrolyte, a metal oxide anode, a dielectric sense and a metal oxide anode.

The metal oxide anode is composed of tantalum and the electrolyte is composed of a mixture of ethylene glycol and fine powder of boric acid. The anode and electrolyte make up the main structure of the 380LQ682M050J022, with the anode being the center of the device. The dielectric layer is composed of tantalum oxide and is thicker than any other layer in the capacitor. This allows for better performance at high frequencies and is also the reason for the wide operating temperature range.

The working principle of the 380LQ682M050J022 is very simple. When a voltage is applied, it causes an electric current to flow through the electrolyte and then towards the anode. As current flows through the electrolyte, it reacts with the boric acid particles and a build-up of ions form at the anode, this increases the charge that is stored by the capacitor. Once the capacitor has been charged, it can then release its stored energy when the power is removed.

Application Fields

The 380LQ682M050J022 is ideally suited for use in applications where high performance and small size are needed. With the wide operating temperature range and high capacitance value, the capacitor is perfect for uses such as automotive electronics, electrical appliances and industrial equipment. It is also well suited for use in AC-DC and DC-DC converters, meaning it can be used in applications such as high frequency switching and motor control.
