MLP132M150EB1C

Introduction

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors, or aluminum electrochemical capacitors, are a type of capacitor which have a relatively large capacitance value per unit volume and are mainly used in power supply circuits because of their low impedance. MLP132M150EB1C is a general-purpose, electrolytic capacitor with a capacitance of 150 μF. This specific type of capacitor is designed to operate with a nominal rated voltage of 6.3V, however, it might be used in a variety of higher voltage application to meet the desired capacitance values.

Application Field

The MLP132M150EB1C is a very common capacitor which can be found in many different kinds of electrical circuits. It can be used in the application field such as automotive, industrial, telecom and more. It is one of the most commonly used capacitor types for these applications, because of its low-profile package and high capacitance.

In the automotive application, the capacitor can be used to maintain voltage during startup and heavy load conditions. In the industrial application, it can be used as a power supply filter for surge suppression. In the telecom application, it can be used to reduce high frequency interference.

Working Principle

The MLP132M150EB1C is constructed with an anode made of aluminum foil which is oxidized with a layer of aluminum oxide. The anode is then rolled so that it forms a tube. The tube is filled with an electrolyte and a cathode made of rolled non-conductive paper, which serves as the second surface of the capacitor.

When the voltage is applied to the capacitor, current flows from the cathode to the anode, and the oxide layer acts as an insulation layer. This causes charge to accumulate on the electrodes resulting in a capacitance. The capacitance of the device is determined by the number of surfaces, their area, and the distance between them.

The MLP132M150EB1C has a maximum operating temperature of 125C and a ripple current of 400mA. It is designed to operate in temperatures from -40C to 85C, and has an electrolytic capacitance of 150 μF.
