Suntan Selecting Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
Suntan Technology Company Limited
----All Kinds of Capacitors
One of the main application classes of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is input capacitors for power inverters.
The aluminum electrolytic capacitor provides a unique value in high energy storage and low device impedance. How you go about selecting the right capacitor or capacitors, however, is not a trivial matter.
Selecting the right capacitor for an application requires a knowledge of all aspects of the application environment, from mechanical to thermal to electrical. The goal of this paper is to assist you with selecting the right capacitor for the design at hand.
Capacitor ripple current waveform considerations. Inverters generally use an input capacitor between a ectified line input stage and a switched or resonant converter stage.
