Application Field of EKXJ401ELL560MM20S

EKXJ401ELL560MM20S capacitors are generally used in medium voltage applications such as AC adapters, DC-DC converters, and SMPS. They have a wide range of internal performances, such as:

• High ripple current and low ESR (equivalent series resistance)
• High temperature and humidity ranges
• Standardized mounting form
• Wide variety of dimensions

Working Principle of EKXJ401ELL560MM20S

The EKXJ401ELL560MM20S capacitor utilizes the same basic operating principle as other aluminum electrolytic capacitors, where a thin oxide film is grown on an aluminum foil surface, acting like a di-electric. The capacitor is formed by winding the foil into a cylindrical structure and the entire assembly is sealed in a metal can. The capacitor is then filled with an electrolyte solution in order to increase conductivity between the electrodes inside the device.

The capacitance of the EKXJ401ELL560MM20S can be varied depending on the size of the can and the type of electrolyte solution used. Typically, the larger the can, the higher the capacitance. The electrolyte solution determines the operating characteristics of the device as well, such as temperature and humidity limits.

The EKXJ401ELL560MM20S capacitor offers a low ESR and high ripple current which is ideal for applications with high frequency switching, allowing for increased efficiency in power supplies. Additionally, the device\'s size and shape allows for easy mounting and long operational life.
