Application Field and Working Principle

The EKMQ250ELL222MK25S aluminum electrolytic capacitor is suitable for use in a variety of electronic circuits, such as filtering signals, passing current, or temporarily storing a charge in high-frequency applications. This capacitor can perform at a high reliability in these applications due to its high capacitance and voltage ratings.

The basic working principle behind aluminum electrolytic capacitors is that a pair of metal plates are separated by an electrolyte. When an external voltage is applied to the capacitor, the electrolyte allows positive and negative charges to form on opposite plates. This accumulation of charges results in an electrostatic field that stores potential energy. This stored energy (capacitance) is determined by the size of the capacitor’s plates and the distance between them.
