Electrolytic Capacitor 2.2µF 50VDC Ø5×11mm, model EB1926730777

Electrolytic Capacitor 2.2µF 50VDC Ø5×11mm is a compact polarized aluminum electrolytic component specified for use in power filtering, decoupling and short-term energy storage within electronic circuits. With a capacitance of 2.2 microfarads and a rated voltage of 50 VDC, its cylindrical body and axial/radial lead configuration allow mounting on printed circuit boards where small footprint and polarity marking are required. The capacitor provides stable capacitance for general-purpose electronics across typical operating temperatures and is intended for applications that require reliable smoothing of supply rails and suppression of low-frequency ripple.

Advantages

This electrolytic capacitor combines a small physical size (Ø5×11 mm) with a moderate capacitance value, making it suitable for space-constrained PCBs. The polarized design enables effective energy storage and discharge behavior for power supply decoupling and transient suppression. The device offers predictable electrical characteristics for general-purpose circuits, facilitating straightforward integration into hardware designs that require a 50 VDC voltage margin and a 2.2 µF capacitance.

Suitable for

• Power supply filtering and ripple reduction
• Decoupling of analog and digital ICs
• Energy storage for transient response on PCBs
• Small form-factor consumer and industrial electronics

Key specifications

• Capacitance: 2.2 µF
• Rated voltage: 50 V DC
• Package dimensions: diameter 5 mm, length 11 mm
• Polarization: polarized (electrolytic)
• Lead style: axial/radial suitable for PCB mounting
• Typical application: power filtering, decoupling, energy storage

How to use

Observe polarity when installing the capacitor: connect the positive lead to the circuit’s higher potential and the negative lead to ground or lower potential. Ensure the operating voltage applied does not exceed the rated 50 V DC and allow adequate clearances on the PCB for the Ø5×11 mm package. For through-hole or radial mounting, insert leads into the PCB and solder using standard soldering temperatures and durations appropriate for electronic components. Verify correct orientation and mechanical stability before applying power.

Usage recommendations

Place the capacitor as close as possible to the supply pins or the point of load to maximize decoupling effectiveness. Avoid exposing the component to temperatures or voltages beyond its rated limits and consider using additional capacitance or series resistance where inrush currents or high ripple currents are expected.
