Electrolytic capacitor 2200µF 6.3VDC EB2017488615 radial can

Radial electrolytic capacitor 2200µF 6.3VDC in a cylindrical can package, intended for through-hole mounting. This component provides bulk capacitance for low-voltage electronic circuits and is suitable for tasks such as power supply smoothing, decoupling and short-term energy storage. The radial can format simplifies PCB placement and soldering in standard power modules, audio equipment and motherboard designs where a compact high-capacitance electrolytic is required.

Advantages

This 2200µF electrolytic capacitor combines a relatively large capacitance with a low rated voltage of 6.3V, offering effective ripple suppression and transient buffering in low-voltage systems. The radial lead configuration and can-style housing enable straightforward through-hole installation and reliable solder joints. Its construction is optimized for bulk energy storage and decoupling applications where stable capacitance and compact footprint are priorities.

Suitable for

• Power supply smoothing and ripple reduction in low-voltage DC rails
• Decoupling of integrated circuits and voltage regulators on motherboards
• Energy storage and transient support in audio amplifiers and power modules
• General-purpose through-hole electronic assemblies requiring bulk capacitance

Key specifications

• Capacitance: 2200 µF
• Rated voltage: 6.3 V DC
• Package: cylindrical can, radial leads for through-hole mounting
• Polarity: polarized electrolytic capacitor (observe correct orientation)
• Typical applications: smoothing, decoupling, energy storage in low-voltage circuits

How to use

Mount the capacitor with correct polarity: the negative lead must be connected to the lower potential or ground. Place the radial leads through the PCB holes and solder securely, ensuring good thermal transfer and mechanical support for the can body. Allow appropriate spacing from heat sources and follow recommended ripple current and temperature limits from the component manufacturer when designing the circuit. When replacing an existing capacitor, match capacitance and voltage rating and verify polarity before soldering.

Usage recommendations

Use this 2200µF 6.3V radial electrolytic capacitor in circuits where low-voltage bulk capacitance is required. Ensure the operating voltage stays within the rated 6.3V and design for expected ripple current and ambient temperature to maximize lifespan. When mounting, avoid excessive mechanical stress on the leads and provide adequate cooling if installed near power-dissipating components.
