UPA0J102MPD6TD Capacitors

Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are the most common type of capacitors used in circuit designs. These capacitors feature a type of construction in which a thin aluminum foil is used as the positive plate and a thick aluminum oxide layer is built up as the dielectric layer. A thin paper film is then soaked in electrolyte liquid to form the electrolyte layer and the negative plate.

The UPA0J102MPD6TD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Murata. This is a surface-mount device that comes in a 0805 size SMD package. It is rated at 10µF and has an operating temperature range of -55- 105°C and a rated voltage of 6 VDC.

Application Field

The UPA0J102MPD6TD capacitor is designed for general use in consumer electronic, telecommunications and other equipment. It is mainly used in applications where high capacitance and high accuracy is desired. Examples of applications include switching power supply, automotive, consumer products, and high-precision audio amplifiers.

Working Principle

The UPA0J102MPD6TD capacitor works on a similar principle as other aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The positive and negative plates of the capacitor are isolated from each other by an insulating oxide film. This oxide film acts as a dielectric and stores the electric charge between the two plates. When a voltage is applied across the plates, equal and opposite electric charges are attracted and stored on each plate. This creates an electric field between the two plates and forms the capacitance.

The capacitance of the UPA0J102MPD6TD is mainly determined by the material and thickness of the dielectric film between the two plates. It is also affected by the size and shape of the plates, the distance between them, and the operating temperature. The capacitance is then further modified by the properties of the electrolyte used in the capacitor.

Conclusion

The UPA0J102MPD6TD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general use in consumer electronic, telecommunications and other equipment. It is mainly used in applications where high capacitance and high accuracy is desired. The capacitor works on the same principle as other aluminum electrolytic capacitors, where electric charge is stored between two plates separated by a dielectric film.
