Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are widely used in various electronic and electrical applications. They are constructed from a series of thin layers of an aluminum oxide layer and an electrolyte separator, with the aluminum oxide layer serving as the dielectric. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are in a polarized configuration, meaning that, due to the movement of ions in the electrolyte, current can only flow in one direction.

USR1C100MDD1TP aluminum electrolytic capacitors are a type of radial-leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitor, which means they have two leads on opposite sides of the capacitor body. The anode is indicated by the positive lead and the cathode by the negative lead. USR1C100MDD1TP capacitors have a maximum working voltage of 100VDC, making them suitable for use in a variety of high-voltage circuits. The capacitance of USR1C100MDD1TP capacitors is 1uF (microfarad).

Application Fields

USR1C100MDD1TP aluminum electrolytic capacitors can be used in a variety of applications, including power conditioning circuits, DC/DC converters, switches, rectifiers, filters, PFC (power factor correction) circuits, and voltage sensors. They can also be used in high-voltage circuits, such as those found in power supplies and motors. In addition, they are commonly found in audio systems and medical instrumentation.

Working Principle

The working principle of USR1C100MDD1TP aluminum electrolytic capacitor is based on the movement of ions in the electrolyte. The positive ions move in one direction due to the electric field, while the negative ions move in the opposite direction. This movement of ions results in a net electric charge on the surfaces of the two layers of aluminum oxide, which creates a capacitance.

The movement of ions is caused by the application of a voltage across the dielectric. When the voltage is applied, the charged ions move from the negative electrode to the positive electrode, creating a charge on the electrodes. This charge induces a current in the capacitor, which is equal to the capacitance multiplied by the applied voltage.

In order to achieve the maximum working voltage of USR1C100MDD1TP aluminum electrolytic capacitors, the voltage applied must be no more than 100VDC. If a higher voltage is applied, the capacitor may be destroyed prior to achieving its maximum working voltage. For this reason, USR1C100MDD1TP capacitors are commonly found in applications with a maximum voltage of 100V.
