Aluminum electrolytic capacitors (AECs) are widely used in electronics and electrical products, especially in consumer products. The LLS2A272MELC is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Nichicon. As its name suggests, it is specifically tailored to applications in high voltage, low ripple conditions. This article will discuss the application fields and working principles of the LLS2A272MELC.

Applications

The Nichicon LLS2A272MELC combines a voltage rating of 400 volts with a large capacity of 4700μF– making it suitable for the demanding power supply and pulse load circuits.

The chip capacitor offers low ESR, a desirable feature when selecting capacitors for audio applications. When incorporated into hi-fi circuitry, the capacitor provides excellent performance in terms of audio quality, meaning the signal is not distorted or attenuated over time. Additionally, the capacitance of the LLS2A272MELC ensures that the monitor\'s signal is not distorted, while the low ESR offers improved high-frequency reproducibility.

The LLS2A272MELC is often used in industrial and automotive applications, too. It is ideal for achieving low-noise power supplies, for frequency modulation in metering systems and surge suppressors, and for commutation and load switching in motor controllers and vehicle electronics.

Working Principle

An aluminum electrolytic capacitor is a polarized electrochemical device with two terminals. When current flows through the capacitor, positive and negative ions move towards the anode and the cathode respectively, thereby allowing electrical charge to flow through the device.

The anode, or positive terminal, is composed of the capacitor’s aluminium foil and its dielectric is composed of insulating aluminium oxide layers. The oxide layers are soaked with a conductive electrolyte, which then acts to transfer electrical charge across the terminals. Through this electrochemical process, the capacitance of the capacitor is determined.

When an AC voltage is applied to the capacitor, the resulting alternating electric fields cause the ions to migrate across the dielectric, resulting in the build-up of charge on either plate. The capacitors in the LLS2A272MELC family can withstand voltages of up to 400 volts, making them a great choice for high voltage applications.

Conclusion

The LLS2A272MELC aluminum electrolytic capacitor combines a large capacitance (4700μF) and high voltage rating (400V) in a single device, making it suitable for various applications ranging from hi-fi audio and metering systems to surge suppressors and motor controllers. The unique electrochemical process and aluminum oxide dielectric further increase its advantages over other types of capacitors in terms of capacitance, ripple suppression, and longevity.
