Aluminum - Polymer Capacitors

Aluminum - Polymer capacitors are a revolutionary electrochemical device that combines the benefits of conventional aluminum electrolytic capacitors with the properties of high-performance polymer dielectrics, allowing for higher operating voltages, better efficiency, and lower ESR (equivalent series resistance) than non-electrolytic capacitors. The capacitors are also known as aluminum polymer capacitors, polymer capacitors, or hybrid capacitors. The specific product in question, PLF0E152MDO1, is a tantalum-polymer capacitor manufactured by Panasonic.

Application Field

The application field of PLF0E152MDO1 is primarily in the power electronics sector. It is specifically designed to deliver ultra-low-ESR performance at high voltage, which is ideal for products ranging from automotive electronics to power supplies and motor drives. Aside from power electronics, the PLF0E152MDO1 can also be applied in other areas such as battery management systems and lighting control applications.

Working Principle

The PLF0E152MDO1 utilizes a combination of electrolytic and non-electrolytic technology, in which the aluminum-polymer dielectric material is sandwiched between two flat surfaces, one of which is composed of a tantalum-based active contact layer, and the other made of a metallic film. The active contact layer is slightly charged, providing the storage of charge and the additional ESR reduction effect. The passive layer is made of either aluminum or nickel-zinc-cobalt, and provides on the other side of the device the low-loss current pathways. The two layers, in combination with the dielectric material, create the electrochemical device known as the Polymer capacitors.

The advantages of PLF0E152MDO1 are a combination of both improved performance characteristics and lower cost. Compared to a conventional aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the aluminum-polymer capacitor offers superior stability, frequency and temperature characteristics, lower ESR, higher operating voltages, and longer lifetimes. The aforementioned properties make the device suitable for a broad range of applications.
