Electrolytic capacitor

Patent Pending Electrolytic capacitor is the generic term for three different capacitor family members: Aluminum electrolytic capacitors, Tantalum electrolytic capacitors and Niobium electrolytic capacitors All electrolytic capacitors (e-caps) are polarized capacitors whose anode electrode (+) are made of a special metal on which an insulating oxide layer originates by anodization (forming), which acts as the dielectric of the electrolytic capacitor.
