The electrolytic capacitor’s capacitance has large tolerance and shows drift in capacitance value from its nominal value as time passes. The typical tolerance of the electrolytic capacitor is 20 % of the nominal value. For example, an aluminum capacitor of 100 µF may have a capacitance value between 80 to 120 µF.
The typical tolerance of the electrolytic capacitor is 20 % of the nominal value. For example, an aluminum capacitor of 100 µF may have a capacitance value between 80 to 120 µF. The capacitance tolerance is the percentage of allowed deviation of measured capacitance from the rated value.
The capacitance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors increases as the temperature increases and decreases as the temperature decreases. The relationship between temperature and capacitance is shown in Fig. 1-9. Tanδ, equivalent series resistance (ESR) and impedance changes with temperature and frequency.
Electrolytic capacitors have high capacitance values. The temperature rise affects the electrolyte’s viscosity and conductivity, affecting the capacitance value and its performance. Also, at extremely cold temperatures, the electrolyte can freeze, affecting its capacitance value.
The capacitance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors changes with temperature and frequency of measurement, so the standard has been set to a frequency of 120Hz and temperature of 20°C. The equivalent circuit of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is shown below. The equivalent series resistance is also known as "ESR". Capacitance (F)
The voltage proof of electrolytic capacitors decreases with increasing temperature. For some applications it is important to use a higher temperature range. Lowering the voltage applied at a higher temperature maintains safety margins.
