LPX561M400H4P3

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are widely used and play an important role in many electronics applications. The LPX561M400H4P3 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from a company called Nichicon. This capacitor has a long-life rating of up to 5,000 hours with a solid electrolyte. It is designed for use in audio and automotive electronics, as well as many other applications where long-term stability and high reliability are needed.

The LPX561M400H4P3 is a polarised capacitor, meaning it has two terminals. There is a negative terminal and a positive terminal, marked as the black terminal and the white terminal, respectively. This is due to the electrolyte inside the capacitor, which is an ionic medium. It enables electrons to flow, but the electrons are restricted to flow in one direction.

The capacitor is constructed of two metal plates, called the anode and the cathode. These plates are separated by a non-conductive material, known as the dielectric. The anode and cathode are separated by a thin layer of electrolyte solution or gel, which serves as the ionic medium. This allows charge to be stored in the form of ions within the dielectric material between the plates.

The capacitance of an electrolytic capacitor depends on the physical size of the capacitor. LPX561M400H4P3 has a capacitance of 400μF at the rated voltage of 16V DC. The temperature range of this capacitor is from -56°C to +85°C, which provides a wide range of operating capabilities for various circuit designs.

The LPX561M400H4P3 has an extended operating life of up to 5,000 hours, which is longer than many other types of aluminum electrolytic capacitors. This makes it ideal for applications which require long operating lifespans, such as automotive electronics or audio systems. The level of reliability provided by this capacitor is also excellent, making it a great option for any applications where dependability is important.

The LPX561M400H4P3 is a great option for many electronic applications, such as audio systems, automotive electronics, and other applications which require long-term operation and high reliability. With its extended operating life of up to 5,000 hours, this aluminum electrolytic capacitor can provide reliable performance for many different types of applications. The level of quality provided by this particular capacitor is second to none, making it an excellent choice for any circuit design.
