UPM1C820MED

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are the most widely used type of power supply capacitors in the modern world. They are reliable, effective, and have a long life expectancy. The UPM1C820MED has become one of the most popular options for many applications due to its size, reliability, and affordability.

The UPM1C820MED is an electrolytic capacitor with a nominal rated capacitance of 820µF at 160 VDC. It is an extremely small-sized capacitor ideal for space-tight applications. It is designed to stand up to low-frequency ripple currents and maximum voltage of 160VDC. This particular model offers a wide temperature range of -40 to +105C, and a long life expectancy of 5000 hours. The large capacity of 820µF ensures that it is able to provide a significant amount of power to an application during startup.

The UPM1C820MED is suitable for a variety of common applications such as LED lighting, air-conditioning, and refrigeration systems. Its low impedance and high capacity makes it a great choice for power supplies and inverters, as it can handle high current loads without overheating. It is also ideal for automotive applications, such as engine starters, lighting, and audio systems. The small size of the UPM1C820MED makes it a suitable option for portable electronics such as cellphones and GPS systems. In the medical industry it can be found in devices such as ultrasound and MRI machines.

The working principle of the UPM1C820MED is simple yet effective. The capacitor is comprised of two aluminum electrodes separated by an electrolyte soaked separator. The electrolyte acts as an insulator and prevents the two metal plates from making contact. When voltage is applied to the terminals this creates an electric field between the plates, causing electrons to move from one plate to the other. As the electrons are attracted to the plates, charges build up and the capacitor stores electric energy. When the voltage is removed the electrons return to their previous positions, releasing the stored energy to the application.

The UPM1C820MED is an excellent choice for reliable and effective power supply applications. It offers a wide range of temperature tolerance, long life expectancy, and is suitable for applications requiring a small size. Its ability to handle high current loads and low impedance makes it an ideal choice for many industries. The simple yet effective working principle of the UPM1C820MED makes it one of the most widely used aluminum electrolytic capacitors on the market today.
