2 POLYMER ALUMINUM ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS
CONDUCTIVE POLYMER ALUMINUM ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS
Hi-CAP (Conductive Polymer Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor)
Hi-CAP is an electrolytic capacitor that uses a highly electric conductive polymer as it's electrolyte.
Hi-CAP has excellent temperature and load life characteristics due to adoption of stable polymer in high temperature.
Compared to other electrolytic capacitors, the Hi-CAP is a low impedance capacitor suitable for high frequency making
it ideal for digital circuit.
1. Circuit design
(1) The conducting polymer capacitor cannot be used in circuits that undergo frequent charging and discharging
because the resulting internal heat buildup can cause capacitor failure.
(2) Do not use the capacitor in time-constant or coupling circuits. In these type of circuit, electrical characteristics such
as capacitance can change under certain environmental conditions.
2. Capacitor handling techniques
(1) Capacitor insertion
Incorrect land size may cause problems with capacitor placement and mountability.
Refer to the land size table for appropriate design dimensions.
(2) Soldering
