Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors (also known as capacitor elements) are components which are used in electrical and electronic circuits to store electrical energy. They are a form of passive electronic component, meaning that they store energy and do not generate energy themselves. They are used extensively in consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial applications.

The EKMQ6R3ELL223MMP1S capacitor is an example of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It has a rated voltage of 16 V and a maximum working voltage of 20 V, with a capacitance of up to 220 µF. It is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +105°C. This capacitor can be applied to safety applications, such as alarm systems and fire suppression systems.

Working Principle

The working principle of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is based on the property of electrolytic capacitance, which is the relationship between the voltage and the amount of electrically charged particles in a capacitor. An electrolyte, such as boric acid, potassium hydroxide, or a mixture of both, is sandwiched between two metallic plates that serve as the electrodes. A metal oxide film is applied to one of the electrodes, which allows for the passage of electric current when a voltage is applied across the plates.

When a DC voltage is applied between the two electrodes, a current flows through the electrolyte, causing a reaction between the metal oxide and the electrolyte which results in the formation of an electrical double layer at the junction of the two electrodes. This electric double layer acts as a semi-permeable barrier, allowing only cations of a certain size to pass through, and thus forming the electrical capacitor.

The capacitance of an electrolytic capacitor is determined by the surface area of the electrodes, as well as the proportion of the electrolyte material. The capacitance will decrease when the temperature of the environment increases, as the ions become more mobile, resulting in a greater proportion of ions being blocked from flow through the electrical double layer, reducing the capacitance.

Application Field

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used extensively in a variety of applications, ranging from power conditioning systems and communications equipment, to consumer electronics such as laptops, phones, and cameras. They offer several advantages over other types of capacitors, such as high capacitance density and long lifetime.

The EKMQ6R3ELL223MMP1S capacitor is used in safety applications, such as alarm systems and fire suppression systems. This capacitor offers a wide range of features, such as a low leakage current and long shelf life. It is also designed to operate in high temperature environments, making it ideal for use in fire suppression systems.

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are also widely used in the automotive industry. They offer advantages such as high reliability and a low equivalent series inductance (ESL), making them well-suited for use in automotive applications, such as on-board computers or power supplies.
