Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

The LGR2G121MELZ40 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, a type of capacitors characterized by a large capacitance per unit volume. Its main advantages include high capacitance, low cost, miniaturization, and long life. They are environmentally friendly, having self-healing effects (except for the non-solid aluminum electrolytic capacitors) and being produced in RoHS compliant versions. As the technology and production process have improved, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used in a variety of applications.

Application Field of LGR2G121MELZ40

As mentioned above, the characteristics of aluminum electrolytic capacitors make them a common choice in many applications. The LGR2G121MELZ40 can be used in general DC circuits, e.g. in applications such as power supplies, battery backup systems, AC/DC converters, and frequency generators. Furthermore, it can be used in AC circuits, where they are ideal for motor drives, inverters, and simply for cooling and noise reduction.

Other than being used in electronic circuits, they are also used in photovoltaic (PV) systems. They are specially designed for PV voltage regulation, coming in a variety of sizes that can adapt to customer needs. They also have high capacitance-to-weight ratios and space-saving features, making for more effective installations.

Working Principle of LGR2G121MELZ40

The LGR2G121MELZ40 aluminum electrolytic capacitor works similarly to a normal electrolytic capacitor, except that the capacitor plates are put between two electrolytes and, in between them, a diaphragm made of electrically conductive paper, forming the dielectric. The films of electrolytes ensure the charges to be stored in each phase, and the paper diaphragm provides the insulation between them.

The working of this capacitor is based on the electrochemical reactions. When a positive charge is applied to the anode, the surface of the anode absorbs the electrons. When a negative charge is applied to the cathode, the surface of the cathode releases electrons. The positive and negative charges attract and repel each other to build up the charge or reduce it and in the process, store electrical energy.

This capacitor is mainly used to store energy in applications where capacitor size and cost are of concern. The main advantages of this type of capacitor are that it has a high capacitance per volume, can be manufactured in miniature sizes, is long-lasting, and is environmentally friendly.
