380LX272M080K022

The 380LX272M080K022 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is one of the most widely used types of capacitors available. It has a very wide range of uses in both consumer and industrial applications. This type of capacitor is also often referred to as an electrolytic capacitor, alumina dielectric, or polarized capacitor.

Application Field

380LX272M080K022 aluminum electrolytic capacitors are mainly used in electronic and industrial circuits. They are commonly found in power supply units, measuring and control devices, motor control systems, instrumentations, switching circuits, and various components. They are also often used in heavy duty power supplies, such as those found in computers, servers, and other electronic equipment.

Working Principle

The working principle of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is that two Aluminum (+) and (-) plates (electrodes) are separated by a diaphragm of paper, which acts as the dielectric material. The electrolyte in between acts as the medium for the electric charge. When a voltage is applied to the capacitor, an electric field forms within the electrolyte. This electric field forces the Aluminum ions to move towards the positive voltage side. This movement of ions causes a charge separation across the dielectric and a capacitance (amount of charge that the capacitor can store) is formed.

The 380LX272M080K022 aluminum electrolytic capacitor has a capacitance of 80,000 μF and a maximum working voltage of 22 Volts. This type of capacitor is also highly reliable and has a long life expectancy. The capacitor also has a low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and is resistant to both vibration and shock.

In conclusion, the 380LX272M080K022 aluminum electrolytic capacitor is a reliable and versatile device that is widely used in both consumer and industrial applications.
