Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are electrical components with vast applications and a wide variety of sub-categories. They are used for all sorts of applications requiring a respectable capacitance and a high surge current rating. Among the ranks of aluminum electrolytic capacitors, one particular part of particular interest is the B41890A4338M. This part is designed for applications that require good capacitance, large voltage ratings, and excellent life span. This article investigates the application field and working principle of B41890A4338M, and provides a thorough overview of the aluminum electrolytic capacitor.

B41890A4338M is indeed an aluminum electrolytic capacitor – one specifically designed for comparatively high capacitance and a large voltage rating. In its simplest definition, the B41890A4338M is characterized by a capacitance ranging from 1 to 75,000 μF, and a voltage rating of up to 350 VDC. Aside from this, the capacitor also boasts a life span of 3,000 to 12,000 hours, a temperature range of –40 to +85 ˚C, and a maximum ripple current of up to 26.6 A. Such parameters make the part suitably suited for a range of applications, including power conversions, snubber circuits, adjustable speed drives, energy storage, and industrial equipment.

The working principle of the B41890A4338M is also relatively simple. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors consist of two electrodes paper-separated by a dielectric. Positive and negative leads are connected to each side of the electrodes, and charge carriers are attracted towards the respective electrodes when a voltage is applied. The current flow is then regulated by the effect of the dielectric. In the case of the B41890A4338M, an aluminum foil is used as the positive electrode. This aluminum foil is then covered by a dielectric, which is also an oxide formed on the aluminum layer.

The B41890A4338M is further protected through a cathode layer, which generally consists of solid-oxide aluminum oxide. As such, the solid-oxide layer shields the aluminum foil from oxidation, hence protecting the electrochemical properties of the aluminum layer. In addition, the solid-oxide layer creates the “popcorn noise” characteristic of aluminum electrolytic capacitors during impedance. All these features, combined with the other electrical characteristics, make the B41890A4338M suitable for many applications.

Overall, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are immensely useful components in a wide variety of applications. The B41890A4338M in particular is characterized by a large capacitance and a relatively high voltage rating, and thus can suit applications such as power conversions, adjustable speed drives, and energy storage. The part works through the same process as all aluminum electrolytic capacitors: aluminum foils are paper-separated by a dielectric which, when charged, attract charge carriers; an oxide layer on the aluminum helps shield the aluminum foil from oxidation; and the capacitor’s characteristics cause it to produce a certain sound – called “popcorn noise” – during impedance. The B41890A4338M is an incredibly useful aluminum electrolytic capacitor, and one that is increasing in demand and popularity.
