Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are basic components used to store and regulate electrical current in circuits. Specifically, the EKMH401VQT122MB63T aluminum electrolytic capacitor can hold large amounts of electrical charge in its terminals, making it suitable for use in high energy applications. This type of capacitor is suitable for many types of electronic equipment, including computers, cameras, and various industrial equipment.

Application Field

The EKMH401VQT122MB63T is a robust aluminum electrolytic capacitor, able to tolerate high temperature and pressure conditions without compromising its performance. The device is suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive electronics, medical devices, power electronics, industrial automation, consumer electronics, computing, audio/video systems, and other high power applications. This capacitor exhibits excellent low leakage current characteristics at high temperatures, making it suitable for use in densely populated circuit boards.

Working Principle

The EKMH401VQT122MB63T works like any other capacitor, except that it utilizes electrolytes as its dielectric material. The device is composed of two aluminum plates, a thin metal oxide layer, and electrolyte solution. This design allows the capacitor to store large amounts of energy and release it in a controlled manner, making it highly useful for many applications. The electrolyte solution in the capacitor oxidizes the aluminum plates, which aids in increasing the capacitance.

When a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, an electric field builds up between them. This electric field causes electrons to move from the negative plate to the positive plate. This movement of electrons is what creates the capacitance of the device. This capacitance is used to temporarily store the energy from the power supply, making it available when needed. This process of electric field buildup, electrons moving, and capacitance generation is known as the working principle of aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

The EKMH401VQT122MB63T aluminum electrolytic capacitor has a long life and high stability across a wide range of temperatures and pressures. Its low self-discharge rate makes it suitable for use in devices with tightly regulated power requirements. This capacitor is an essential component in today’s sophisticated electronic equipment, able to provide a reliable source of energy in a compact and cost-effective package.
