EEU-FC1V122

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are the most common type of capacitor used today due to their small size, high capacitance, and relatively low cost. The EEU-FC1V122 is a typical example of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It is an axial type radial leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitor, with a capacitance value of 1000 μF and a rated voltage of 16 VDC.

An aluminum electrolytic capacitor consists of two conductive aluminum foils and a very thin dielectric layer of aluminum oxide in between. The most common construction is a long cylinder with two radial leaded wires sticking out of either end of the cylinder. When a voltage is applied across the terminals of the capacitor, electrostatic charges accumulate on the opposite surfaces of the dielectric surface, creating an electrical field between the two conductive plates. The amount of stored energy is proportional to the capacitance value, which is determined by the area, gap width and dielectric constant of the dielectric layer.

The EEU-FC1V122 is designed for use in applications that require increased reliability and long life, such as switch mode power supplies and energy storage and conversion areas. This type of capacitor is ideal for low-voltage DC applications where the ripple current, ESR, and self-heating need to be kept to a minimum. The EEU-FC1V122 is also highly resistant to temperature, humidity, and vibration, making it suitable for a wide range of wide temperature climates.

The working principle of the EEU-FC1V122 is simple and straightforward. When a voltage is applied across the terminals of the capacitor, the metal plates become charged and electrons move into the dielectric layer, creating an electrostatic field between the two plates. This is known as an electric double layer, and it creates a barrier that prevents current from flowing through the capacitor. This electric double layer serves as a voltage regulator and can be used to store electrical energy.

The EEU-FC1V122 is an excellent choice for applications that require high reliability and long life. Its temperature and humidity resistance, small size, low leakage current, and high reliability make it a perfect fit for high-voltage DC applications. Additionally, its low ESR and self-heating make it suitable for low-voltage DC applications. With its robust design, the EEU-FC1V122 is an ideal choice for a wide range of DC voltage applications.
