Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are a type of capacitor that utilizes an electrolytic reaction and ionic transfer between an anode, the positive terminal of the capacitor, and the cathode, the negative terminal.

The EEU-TP1E472 capacitor is a general-purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It has a wide range of applications in both commercial and industrial settings. This capacitor is available in a variety of capacitances, starting at 220μF and going up to 1000μF. It is designed to operate at a maximum voltage of 25V, and is rated to withstand temperatures up to 85°C.

The EEU-TP1E472 capacitor is designed with a long life expectancy of up to 1,000 hours of use at 105°C. This makes it a reliable and durable component for many applications. The capacitor also has a wide operating temperature range, making it suitable for use in a variety of environments.

Working Principle

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are constructed from two aluminum foil plates that are covered with an oxide layer and separated by a spacer. The oxide layer acts as the dielectric or insulator between the plates. When voltage is applied to the capacitor, the oxide layer is polarized and electrons are drawn to the more negatively charged plate. This creates an electric field in the dielectric which acts as an energy source, allowing the capacitor to store electrical energy.

When an alternating current is applied to the capacitor, the electric field changes direction. This creates an alternating current flowing through the capacitor and the alternating current creates a vibrating electric field which creates a capacitance. The capacitance is a measure of how much energy the capacitor can store for a given voltage.

Applications

The EEU-TP1E472 capacitor is often used for a variety of applications including smoothing circuits, power supplies, and filtering circuits. Its wide range of capacitances makes it well-suited for these applications.

Smoothing circuits are often used to reduce the ripple voltage in a DC power supply. This can be done by adding a capacitor connected in parallel with the DC source. The capacitor acts as a reservoir for energy and absorbs the AC ripple voltage. This creates a smooth DC voltage with reduced ripple.

The EEU-TP1E472 capacitor is also well-suited for power supplies. Its high capacitance and wide operating temperature range make it well-suited for power supply applications. Additionally, its long life expectancy makes it reliable over the long term.

Finally, the EEU-TP1E472 capacitor is often used in filtering circuits. Its wide capacitance range makes it well-suited for this application as it can be used to filter out different frequency signals. By choosing the right combination of capacitors with different capacitances, it is possible to create a filter circuit with a specific frequency response.

Conclusion

The EEU-TP1E472 capacitor is a general-purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a wide range of applications. It is well-suited for smoothing circuits, power supplies, and filtering circuits due to its wide range of capacitances and its long life expectancy. It is also highly reliable and can withstand temperatures up to 85°C.
