series introduction
# Introduction to the EEU - FC1J471 Product Series
## 1. Overview
The EEU - FC1J471 product series belongs to the realm of electronic components, specifically electrolytic capacitors. These capacitors play a crucial role in a wide range of electronic circuits, serving functions such as energy storage, filtering, coupling, and decoupling. The EEU - FC1J471 series is designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern electronic applications with its high - performance characteristics and reliable operation.
## 2. Key Specifications
### Capacitance
The "471" in the model number indicates the capacitance value. Using the standard capacitor marking convention, 471 means \(47\times10^1\) pF. So, the capacitance of the EEU - FC1J471 series capacitors is \(470\) pF. This capacitance value is carefully chosen to be suitable for various circuit designs where a specific amount of charge storage is required, such as in high - frequency filtering circuits.
### Voltage Rating
The "1J" in the model number represents the voltage rating. In the capacitor industry, the letter "J" typically corresponds to a voltage rating of 63V. This means that the EEU - FC1J471 series capacitors are designed to operate safely at a maximum voltage of 63V. It is important to ensure that the voltage across the capacitor in the actual circuit does not exceed this rating to prevent damage to the capacitor and potential malfunction of the entire circuit.
### Tolerance
The tolerance of the EEU - FC1J471 series capacitors is usually within a certain range. Common tolerance values for electrolytic capacitors are around ±5%, ±10%, or ±20%. A tighter tolerance ensures that the actual capacitance value of the capacitor is closer to the nominal value, which is crucial for circuits that require precise capacitance values, such as in oscillator circuits.
### Temperature Range
These capacitors are designed to operate within a specific temperature range. Typically, they can function properly in a temperature range from - 40°C to +85°C. This wide temperature range makes them suitable for use in various environments, from industrial settings where temperatures can be extreme to consumer electronics that may be exposed to different ambient conditions.
## 3. Construction and Design
### Electrolyte
The EEU - FC1J471 series uses an electrolyte, which is a key component in electrolytic capacitors. The electrolyte helps to form a thin dielectric layer on the anode, which is responsible for the capacitor's capacitance. The choice of electrolyte is carefully selected to ensure good electrical conductivity, stability over time, and resistance to high temperatures.
### Anode and Cathode
The anode is usually made of a metal with good electrochemical properties, such as aluminum. The cathode is also designed to work in conjunction with the anode and the electrolyte to store and release electrical charge efficiently. The construction of the anode and cathode is optimized to minimize internal resistance and maximize the capacitor's performance.
### Packaging
The capacitors in the EEU - FC1J471 series are typically packaged in a compact and durable enclosure. The packaging not only protects the internal components from physical damage but also provides electrical insulation. Common packaging types include radial leaded packages, which are easy to mount on printed circuit boards (PCBs) using through - hole technology.
## 4. Applications
### Power Supply Circuits
In power supply circuits, the EEU - FC1J471 series capacitors can be used for filtering purposes. They help to smooth out the DC voltage by removing the ripple component that is present in the rectified AC voltage. This ensures a stable and clean power supply for the electronic devices connected to the power supply circuit.
