Applications

This product is mainly used for decoupling, smoothing, contrasting, compensating, resonating, filtering, buffering, etc. It can be used alone or applied in various circuits. Generally there are two main types: the Radial Lead Type and the SMD Type (Surface Mounted Type). This product ESMG350ETD102MK20S is a radial lead type.

Working Principle

This product is based on aluminum electrolytic capacitor principles to function. It uses a liquid or paste electrolyte to conduct electricity. Its electrodes are made of aluminum foil with high surface area. The one core of the electrode is anodized to create a thin insulating layer which acts as a dielectric. The dielectric is then surrounded by absorbent paper and an outer shell. When energized, the electrolyte fills in all of the tiny pores of the aluminum plates, forming a single capacitor with the desired capacitance. The capacitance is then determined by the surface area and the material dielectric.

Structure

The structure of this product consists of outer shell, absorbent paper, Aluminum Foil, electrolyte and electrodes. The outer shell acts as a protective shell to prevent any damages or contamination. The absorbent paper acts as a moisture barrier in case of any leakage of electrolyte. The electrolyte was filled in the pores of the aluminum foil which forms a single capacitor to obtain the desired capacitance. The electrodes are defined by their amount of surface area. The higher the surface area will result in a higher capacitance.

Parameter

The voltage range of the product is up to 350V. Meanwhile, the capacitance range is from 0.1uF to 10uF, and the capacitance tolerance is ±20%. The ripple current is around 1~2.5A and the different types of operating temperatures are –40°C to +125°C.
