63YXG220MEFCCA10X23

Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

The 63YXG220MEFCCA10X23 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It is a two-terminal electronic component consisting of an anode of aluminum foil, typically coated with an oxide film, a liquid electrolyte, and a cathode of aluminum foil. It is typically used to store energy temporarily or open or close a circuit as an electronic switch.

Applications

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are commonly found in power supplies, audio equipment, computers, and electronic instruments. They are also often used in energy sources for automobiles, electric power distribution systems, medical equipment, amplifiers, broadcast transmitters, oscilloscopes, robots, and many consumer and industrial electronic devices.

Additionally, the 63YXG220MEFCCA10X23 is often used when high current capacity, stable capacitance, and low impedance are desired in a small package. This makes it the ideal choice for applications that require a large amount of energy, such as high-performance audio amplifiers, high-level sound systems, and power supplies.

Working Principle

The principle of operation for the 63YXG220MEFCCA10X23 is relatively simple. It operates in a similar fashion to other capacitors. The anode aluminum foil is separated from the cathode aluminum foil by an insulating electrolyte. When a potential difference is applied across the capacitor, the anode and cathode establish a barrier to the flow of charge, preventing the current from passing directly through the capacitor.

Instead, the electric current will be conducted between the anode and cathode, through the electrolyte, thus allowing the capacitor to store energy. The greater the electric potential difference, the greater the charge stored. When the electrical field is removed, the stored charge is removed and the capacitor returns to its neutral state.
