MAL203856102E3

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors (also known as an electrochemical capacitor) are primarily composed of aluminum metal and two electrodes that use an electrolytic solution as a dielectric. This type of capacitor has a high value of surface area to volume, however, it also has a low power density, making it the right choice for low voltage applications in which size and weight are main concerns. The MAL203856102E3 capacitor is a type of aluminum electrolytic capacitor that has a capacitance of 2.2 µF, a working voltage of 13 V and -40°C to 85°C series temperature range.

The MAL203856102E3 capacitor has many advantages that make it an ideal choice for use in low voltage applications. One of the main advantages is that it has a low ESR value, meaning lower power dissipation and higher reliability. Because of its low ESR value, the MAL203856102E3 capacitor is often used in high speed applications. Additionally, its low ESR value enables it to handle the high temperatures associated with high frequency applications. The MAL203856102E3 capacitor also has a long service life of up to 2000 hours, making it a cost-effective option.

The MAL203856102E3 capacitor’s operating principle is based on its ability to store energy in an electric field between two plates. This is done by forming an insulating layer around the metal plates. This insulating layer is formed when a voltage is applied across the capacitor, which causes the metal plates to polarize in the opposite direction. This polarization results in an electric field that causes the metal plates to attract, creating an electrostatic field to store electrical energy.

The applications of the MAL203856102E3 capacitor range from power supplies and DC-DC converters to automotive and motor control systems. Its low-ESR design and excellent temperature range make it ideal for use in automotive applications such as engine control units, central locking systems, and electric window motors. Additionally, its low cost and long operational life make it highly cost-effective and reliable option for power supplies and DC-DC converters. The MAL203856102E3 capacitor is also commonly used in computer motherboards, microprocessors, and other consumer electronics due to its efficient operation and high reliability.

In summary, the MAL203856102E3 capacitor is an excellent choice for use in low voltage applications in which size and weight are main concerns. This type of capacitor has a low ESR value that enables it to handle high frequencies and temperatures, making it an ideal choice for high speed applications. Additionally, its long operational life and low cost make it a highly reliable and cost-effective option.
