EEE-FK0J151SR Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are polarized components, which incorporate two electrodes separated by an anodically-formed dielectric layer, as well as an electrolyte containing mobile ions. This type of capacitor has a large capacitance per unit volume and is lightweight, making them the preferred choice for many applications requiring significant frequency range, maximum DC voltage up to 63V and operating temperature from -55C to +125C. The EEE-FK0J151SR is a standard series aluminum electrolytic capacitor, suitable for a wide range of applications.

Application Field

The EEE-FK0J151SR are very suitable in designs that require high frequency, high voltage, long life operation and small footprint. As such, they can be used in power supply circuits and power meters, line filters and in DC link capacitors that occur in switch mode power supply designs. In addition, they are suitable for consumer electronics such as stereo systems, radios, televisions and Automatically Guided Vehicles (AGV) or audio-visual systems. Furthermore, they are suitable for high frequency power line communications in industrial categories as well as for HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the EEE-FK0J151SR aluminum electrolytic capacitor is based on Faraday’s Law. In simple terms, this law states that an electric current is produced in an electrically charged material when a varying magnetic field is passed through it. In the case of the EEE-FK0J151SR, anodized aluminum layers act as the magnetically varying field and create a fixed electric potential on the surface of the capacitor. This electric potential then forms the capacitance within the component. As the capacitor charges and discharges, the charge transferred through the capacitor is proportionate to its capacitance. Thus, the longer the component is charged, the greater the charge stored in it.

As well as Faraday’s Law, Joule’s Law also plays a role in the EEE-FK0J151SR aluminum electrolytic capacitor’s working principle. Joule’s Law states that when a current passes through a resistor, heat is produced by the component, which is proportional to the power dissipated. This is especially true in aluminum electrolytic capacitors, as heat is generated when the component is charged and discharged. The component in turn dissipates this heat and thus is cooled down, preventing any damage to the component or other connected components.

The EEE-FK0J151SR is a safe and reliable component, which provides a wide range of application and working principles. Its small size, low weight and long life characteristics make it the preferred choice in many applications requiring high voltage as well as high frequency range.
