EEE-FK1E680AP

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are among the most common forms of capacitors available and are widely used in a variety of electrical and electronic products. The EEE-FK1E680AP is a low ESR, high ripple current aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a longer lead pitch to fit into larger surface mount packages. It is ideal for applications requiring high ripple current and very low ESR such as lightning protection circuits, buck-boost converters, and clocked systems.

The EEE-FK1E680AP utilizes two aluminum foils, separated by a dielectric material, to create an internal electric field that allows the capacitor to store electrical energy. One of the aluminum foils is encased in a liquid electrolyte, usually a mixture of water and an organic solvent. This electrolyte serves as both a medium for the electrolysis of the aluminum and as a source of ions for the electric field. The second aluminum foil is an anode, which is connected to one of the leads on the EEE-FK1E680AP. The other lead is connected to the cathode, usually a third flat aluminum foil.

The EEE-FK1E680AP is rated in two different ways: volts (V) and microfarads (µF). The voltage rating indicates the maximum voltage that the capacitor can withstand, while the microfarad rating indicates the maximum amount of electrical energy that can be stored in the capacitor. The volt rating of the EEE-FK1E680AP is 6.3V, and its capacitance ranges from 1.5µF to 4.5µF, with a tolerances of ±20%.

The EEE-FK1E680AP’s unique combination of lead spacing and low equivalent series resistance (ESR) makes it very desirable for applications that require high ripple currents and no loss of performance. The low ESR of the EEE-FK1E680AP results in very low power dissipation, ensuring that the capacitor maintains its rated voltage even when under a high ripple current. In addition, the long lead pitch of the capacitor allows it to fit into even the most densely packed circuits without compromising its performance.

The EEE-FK1E680AP is well suited for high temperature and long term reliability, making it ideal for automotive, medical, and other high reliability applications. The EEE-FK1E680AP is available in both radial and axial leaded versions, allowing for flexibility in any application. With its long lead pitch and low ESR, the EEE-FK1E680AP is a great choice for high ripple current and high temperature applications.
