Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors, or AECs, are cylindrical components composed of two or more capacitors with metallic plates forming a dielectric barrier. These capacitors help pass a current during alternating current (AC) applications. The MAL214256682E3 AEC is one such component used to provide capacitor bridging, energy storage, filter components, and power conditioning.

This AEC is part of a family of components called polarised aluminum electrolytic capacitors, which are designed with two distinct poles. One is the anode, which consists of a dielectric aluminum oxide layer on the surface of an aluminum foil substrate. The other is the cathode, which has a coating that consists of an electrolyte and a metallic material. The oxide and electrolyte layers form a highly stable electrolytic barrier to form the capacitor.

The MAL214256682E3 is classified as a radial-leaded AEC, which means the leads are situated longitudinally on one side of the cylinder. This feature is beneficial in applications where the size or configuration of the component needs to be flexible and rotated easily. The circular construction of the component also facilitates easier mounting. The maximum dimensions for this component are 26.5mm in length and 8.7mm in diameter.

In addition to its size, the MAL214256682E3 has several other technical specifications that can inform potential applications. One is its rated capacitance, which is 47 μF over a 10% tolerance range. This capacitance is ideal for a wide range of AC and DC applications. It also has a 2.5kV voltage rating, which means it can be used in high voltage environments.

The MAL214256682E3 also has a leakage current rating of 5μA, a temperature max rating of 125°C, and a life span of 5000 hours. The maximum ripple current for this component can reach up to 0.2Arms. Its dielectric strength is also excellent, with a working voltage of 2.5kV AC.

The device employs an internal voltage overload protection mechanism, which means it will switch off when it receives a voltage above its specified rating and remain in the off position until the voltage is reduced. This makes it ideal for use in power conditioning applications, providing a failsafe mechanism for shorting and overload. The MAL214256682E3 also has wide operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, making it suitable for a variety of temperature regulated applications.

The working principle of the MAL214256682E3 is the same as any other basic capacitor: when two parallel plates with a dielectric layer in between are connected to a voltage source, the plates gain electrons, thus storing energy. The electrons in the plates will flow to the opposite plate when the voltage source is removed. This flow of charge is what allows capacitors to regulate alternating current, which is exactly what the MAL214256682E3 is designed to do.

The MAL214256682E3 AEC is designed for a wide range of AC and DC applications, from power conditioning to energy storage and capacitor bridging. Its cylindrical shape and radial leads are ideal for applications that need flexibility and ease of mounting, and its technical specifications make it well-suited for high voltage environments. The all-in-one package makes the component an attractive choice for a range of impedance needs.
