Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are one of the most common styles of electrical capacitors. They are divided into three distinct types: electrolytic, non-electrolytic and non-polarized. This article looks at the specifics of KMG16VB10RM5X11LL, one of the common models within the aluminum electrolytic capacitor family.

Application Field

KMG16VB10RM5X11LL capacitors are typically used to filter out electrical noise from AC signals. This helps to ensure that distortion and other interference are not present in the signal coming from the capacitor. Most commonly found in automotive, audio, video, and radio equipment, they are also used in applications such as oscillators, power supplies, or waveforms. In addition, they are often employed in industrial machinery or medical equipment.

Working Principle

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors work by creating a charge storage system, one that blocks or passes DC current when placed in a circuit. KMG16VB10RM5X11LL capacitors, specifically, feature a non-solid aluminum casing. Inside this casing is a thin layer of electrolyte, a sponge-like material that surrounds two metal plates. When a DC voltage is applied across the plates, an electric field is created which causes an electrolytic reaction in the electrolyte and produces a system of ions.

The positive and negative ions form an insulating barrier between the two plates, which is how the charge is stored. When the capacitor is used in a circuit, the ions are able to move freely, allowing the capacitor to act as a filter. It will store energy from the DC current and pass it through the circuit, while simultaneously blocking AC signals.

Size and Performance

KMG16VB10RM5X11LL capacitors are relatively small in size, measuring in at 0.4 inches in diameter and 0.9 inches in height. They have a high operating temperature threshold, reaching up to 150°C and a capacitance rating of 160 microfarads. The capacitors also have an electric life of 6000 hours, meaning they are likely to last for many years.

Conclusion

KMG16VB10RM5X11LL capacitors are an effective, reliable, and affordable solution for filtering AC signals in most applications that require noise suppression. With a low profile, long-lasting electric life, and high temperature threshold, these electrolytic capacitors provide an ideal solution for many electrical engineering problems.
