250V 100uF Capacitor
Description
A 250V 100µF electrolytic capacitor is a polarized component used for high-capacity voltage smoothing. It stabilizes power in medium-sized DC circuits. It offers a balance between high storage and a compact physical footprint.
Specifications
- Capacitance: 100 microfarads (µF) – Strong energy storage for ripple reduction.
- Voltage Rating: 250 Volts (V) – Designed for rectified mains and DC-DC power stages.
- Type: Aluminum electrolytic.
- Tolerance: Typically ±20%.
- Polarity: Polarized (negative lead marked by a stripe).
- Temp Range: −40°C to +85°C or +105°C.
- Package: Radial lead; cylindrical form factor.
Applications
- SMPS Filtering: Primary filter for switching mode power supplies.
- Audio Equipment: Provides bulk power filtering for high-voltage amplifiers.
- Industrial Electronics: Used in motor control signal smoothing.
- LED Power Units: Ensures flicker-free operation in high-power lighting.
- Chargers: Stabilizes DC output in laptop and equipment chargers.
Key Features
- High Energy Density: Stores significant charge for its size.
- Ripple Current Capacity: Handles high-frequency noise from rectifiers.
- Reliable Longevity: Built for continuous use in power conversion.
- Standard Mounting: Fits easily into through-hole PCB layouts.
Note:
This part is polarized. Wrong orientation causes immediate failure or rupture. Never exceed the 250V limit. This capacitor stores enough energy to cause a painful shock; discharge it before touching the leads.
