In-depth understanding of the structure and application of bolt-type electrolytic capacitors-RC No. 1 [Copy link]

Bolt-on type electrolytic capacitors are a widely used component in electronic circuits. They are a type of component specifically designed to store charge, providing capacitance and filtering effects in circuits. In this article, we will take a deep look at the structure, working principle, applications, and precautions of bolt-on type electrolytic capacitors.

1. Structure of bolt-type electrolytic capacitor

Bolt-on type electrolytic capacitor is a kind of electrolytic capacitor, and its structure mainly consists of the following parts:

Two electrodes: positive and negative. In bolt-type electrolytic capacitors, aluminum foil with sufficient electrochemical aluminization is generally used as the positive electrode, while the negative electrode is usually graphite material.

2. Electrolyte: It is mainly composed of organic acid, inorganic salt and solvent. The type and composition of the electrolyte will affect the performance of bolt-type electrolytic capacitors.

3. Shell: The shell of bolt-type electrolytic capacitors is usually made of metal materials, such as aluminum alloy shell.

4. Sealing ring: This is a gasket located between the outer shell and the electrolyte, and its function is to seal and insulate.

2. Working Principle of Bolt-Type Electrolytic Capacitor

An electric field is formed between the positive and negative electrodes of the bolt-type electrolytic capacitor. When it is working, the free electrons in the electrolyte move toward the electrode under the electric field when it is charged, and the positive ions in the electrolyte move toward the negative electrode, forming an oxidation-reduction reaction. In this process, charge and potential difference are generated.

When the bolt-on electrolytic capacitor is fully charged, the electrolyte has diffused between the positive and negative electrodes, creating a polarized layer. At this point, the energy filled in the polarized layer no longer increases. The capacitance is proportional to the amount of stored charge and is related to the amount of oxidized material stored inside it. When the applied voltage is removed, the charge returns from the electrolyte to the electrodes and is stored by the capacitor, so it is very convenient and has a fast response time when they need to be sent next time.

3. Application of bolt-type electrolytic capacitors

Bolt-on type electrolytic capacitors have many features due to their working principle, which makes them used in many fields.

1. Commonly used in power supply circuits to stabilize voltage and current and help eliminate high-frequency interference.

2. Used in audio amplifiers, it can provide good sound quality and dynamic range.

3. Used in AC motor or inverter systems, it can help eliminate motor vibration and inductor current noise.

4. Used in various high-frequency filters to suppress high-frequency noise and AC ripple.

5. Used in power supply circuits and DC circuits, it can effectively stabilize voltage and current.

4. Precautions for bolt-type electrolytic capacitors

Although bolt-on electrolytic capacitors play an important role in electronic circuits, there are some things to note in practical applications.

1. Choose the right model and specifications: Choosing the right model and specifications is an important factor in ensuring circuit stability and reliability.

2. Working temperature: Bolt-type electrolytic capacitors are easily affected by temperature. Their working temperature range should be determined to avoid using them in high or low temperature environments.

3. Prevent overvoltage: Bolt-type electrolytic capacitors are susceptible to overvoltage, so a protection circuit needs to be added to the circuit to avoid overvoltage conditions.

4. Pay attention to polarity: Bolt-type electrolytic capacitors have positive and negative polarity, so pay attention to their polarity during installation and use to avoid reverse connection.

5. Avoid mechanical vibration: Bolt-type electrolytic capacitors are easily affected by mechanical vibration, so it is necessary to maintain a stable working environment and avoid using them in an environment with frequent mechanical vibration.

Bolt-on electrolytic capacitors are an important electronic component that is widely used in high-performance circuits. Correctly selecting the model and specification, paying attention to the working environment and protecting its mechanical stability are very important to ensure the stability and performance of bolt-on electrolytic capacitors.
