Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors, commonly referred to as EL-caps, are electronic components used in a wide variety of applications and are commonly used in power supply, audio and linework systems as basic elements that make up a circuit. The SK100M160ST is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor featuring an X1-rated internal “snap-in” construction, which is used for fast assembly in several key applications.

Applications of the SK100M160ST include those requiring a long-term, high-voltage solution such as DC power supply, solar power system, and power amplifier boards. This part is available in a range of case sizes and capacitances, and is also suitable for use in automotive designs due to its X1-rated construction. The SK100M160ST is capable of providing high-performance in a variety of demanding applications.

In terms of its working principle, the SK100M160ST utilizes an anode which is composed of an aluminum foil while the electrolyte, the cathode, is comprised of a porous material. As current flows through the circuit, the electrolyte forms a metallic film on the facing surface of the aluminum layers in the anode. This metallic film, also known as a dielectric, provides the necessary polarization, as well as a certain amount of insulation between the anode and the cathode. As a result, a capacitance is formed, which is the measure of the amount of energy stored within the capacitor.

The SK100M160ST is capable of handling DC voltages of up to 400V, with a ripple current rating of up to 20A and a dissipation factor of less than 0.05. This high-performance capacitor also features an excellent low leakage current and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. Additionally, the SK100M160ST is fully RoHS compliant, making it a desirable option for applications requiring environmental protection.

In summary, the SK100M160ST is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor that is designed to provide long-term, high-voltage solutions for a wide range of demanding applications such as DC power supply, solar power system and power amplifier boards. Its X1-rated construction also makes it suitable for use in automotive designs. The working principle of the SK100M160ST involves the formation of a dielectric layer between the anode and the cathode, thus allowing for the effective storage of energy. This capacitor is capable of handling DC voltages up to 400V and features an excellent low leakage current and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.
