LGJ2Z471MELC

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors use the principle of electrolysis to store energy in discrete devices. These capacitors are most commonly used in electronic circuits to filter out high-frequency signals, store energy, regulate the voltage, and provide transient current or to act as a timing element, for example in a timer. Typically, aluminum electrolytic capacitors have relatively high capacities for their size and are used in such applications as power supplies, signal filters, timing circuits, tuning circuits, etc.

The LGJ2Z471MELC aluminum electrolytic capacitor is a non-polarized type device that has two terminals, a positive and a negative, which are connected internally to opposite electrodes. The LGJ2Z471MELC is an axial-lead capacitor that consists of an anode and a cathode, enclosed in a can. Internally, its structure consists of two aluminum foils which act as electrodes. It is also equipped with a sintered anode, which is a porous structure, that holds the electrolyte in place. The device also has a liquid-electrolyte, which is used to establish an electrolytic capacitance between the aluminum foils and the sintered anode.

The LGJ2Z471MELC aluminum electrolytic capacitor features a relatively low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and a wide range of capacitance values ranging from 47uF to 470uF. Its voltage rating is typically up to 35V. The device is renowned for its superior high-temperature characteristics, featuring an operating temperature range between -55°C to 105°C, with a maximum temperature limit of 125°C.

Due to its unique features and high quality, the LGJ2Z471MELC aluminum electrolytic capacitor is widely used in a broad range of applications. Some of the main application fields include consumer electronics, industrial automation, power supplies, power conversion, medical, automotive, and instrumentation. A few examples of typical air conditioning and automotive applications for which the device can be used include power factor correction, motor speed control, and temperature control.

In terms of operation, the electrolyte in the LGJ2Z471MELC acts as an ionic bridge between the two electrodes and the sintered anode. The electrolyte allows the flow of ions between it and the electrodes, creating an electrical field around them. This electrical field increases the capacitance of the device, which in turn allows it to store energy. The device also acts as a filter in many applications, for example to filter out unwanted high-frequency signals.

The LGJ2Z471MELC aluminum electrolytic capacitor is essential component in a variety of electronic applications, and plays an increasingly important role in modern technology. Its unique performance characteristics make it an ideal choice for various energy storage, filter, and timing applications. The device is also highly recommended for environments with extreme temperatures, due to its high temperature tolerance.
