Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are widely used in electronic circuits. They are composed of two or three electrodes, an insulating material and a metal shell. A large ratio of capacitance to volume can be achieved by using electrolyte-filled aluminum foil electrodes connected in series. The electrodes are made of strips of aluminum foil covered with an oxide layer on one side. The oxide layer is formed by anodic oxidation of the aluminum. Therefore, aluminum electrolytic capacitors have a very large capacitance and are very small in size.

The UVZ1V100MDD1TA is a popular type of aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It is available in a wide range of capacitance values, ranging from 10uF to 500uF. It has a voltage rating of 25 to 400 volts, making it suitable for many different applications. The capacitor is also available with either a radial lead or axial lead. This capacitor has an operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C.

Application Field

The UVZ1V100MDD1TA aluminum electrolytic capacitor is suitable for many applications, such as power supplies, snubber circuits, DC-DC converters, audio and radio equipment, motor drives, industrial control systems, and other high voltage applications. The total capacitance can easily be increased by connecting several capacitors in series-parallel combination. This makes it very useful for many AC line filtering applications.

Working Principle

The UVZ1V100MDD1TA aluminum electrolytic capacitor works based on the electric field principle. When a voltage is applied between its electrodes, electric charges accumulate at the ends of the electrodes. This creates an electric field and a capacitance between the electrodes. The dielectric between the electrodes affects the capacitance. The current flows from the negative to the positive electrode through the electrolyte. The capacitance of the capacitor is determined by the size, shape and type of material used for the electrodes.

The aluminum electrolytic capacitors have a long service life and are suitable for applications that require high capacitance values. They are cost-effective and reliable components providing excellent performance. The aluminum electrolytic capacitors are an essential part of most electronic circuits, so understanding their working principle and application field is essential for successful circuit design.
