0.47uF 50V Electrolytic Capacitors
0.47uF 50V Electrolytic Capacitors
- This is an Electrolytic capacitor with 0.47µF of capacitance and 50V rating.
- Electrolytic capacitors are used in huge quantities, They are able to provide a larger capacitance per volume than other types of capacitor. This gives them very many uses in circuits where high currents or low frequencies are involved. Electrolytic capacitors are typically used most in applications such as audio amplifiers of all types (hi-fi to mobile phones) and in power supply circuits.
- Like any other capacitor, it is necessary to understand the advantages and limitations of these capacitors to enable them to be used most effectively.
- A capacitor with a capacitance value of 0.47uF and a maximum voltage rating of 50V, which is of the “electrolytic” type, signifying that it has a polarized design with a positive and negative terminal; typically used for filtering power supply ripple in electronic circuits.
Breakdown:
- 0.47uF: The capacitance value, which is 0.47 microfarads.
- 50V: The maximum voltage the capacitor can safely handle.
- Electrolytic: The type of capacitor, which usually has a larger capacitance value compared to other types in a similar size, but requires attention to polarity.
Key points about electrolytic capacitors:
-
Polarity:
They have a designated positive and negative terminal, so connecting them backwards can damage them.
-
Applications:
Commonly used in power supplies to filter out voltage ripple and smooth out current fluctuations.
-
Size:Generally larger than other capacitor types for the same capacitance value.
