Electrolytic Capacitor 330µF 100VDC 12.5x25mm, EB1623655602

Radial electrolytic capacitor 330µF 100VDC 12.5x25mm is a polarized aluminium-can capacitor designed for smoothing, decoupling and short-term energy storage in electronic circuits. The component offers 330 microfarads of capacitance and a rated DC voltage of 100 V, housed in a compact 12.5 × 25 mm radial package suitable for through-hole PCB mounting. It is intended for use in power supplies, audio equipment, industrial control electronics and other applications where compact high-voltage filtering is needed.

Advantages

This electrolytic capacitor provides a high capacitance-to-size ratio for its 12.5×25 mm can format, enabling effective ripple suppression and transient energy delivery in a small footprint. The 100 VDC rating allows operation in higher-voltage sections of power converters and industrial electronics. The radial lead configuration facilitates secure through-hole mounting and reliable mechanical connection to printed circuit boards. The aluminium can construction ensures stable electrical characteristics under normal operating temperatures.

Suitable for

• Power supply smoothing and ripple reduction
• Decoupling of voltage rails in analog and digital circuits
• Energy storage for short load transients
• Industrial control and measurement electronics
• Audio amplifier power stages

How to use

Install the capacitor on the PCB observing correct polarity: the negative lead must connect to the lower potential or designated negative rail. Place the component physically close to the circuit node requiring smoothing to minimize series inductance and resistance. When replacing an existing part, ensure the replacement matches the capacitance, voltage rating and physical dimensions so it fits the board and maintains required electrical performance. Follow the manufacturer’s derating guidelines and allow sufficient ventilation if used near heat sources.

Usage recommendations

Operate the capacitor at or below its rated temperature and voltage; for extended lifetime, apply voltage derating and avoid continuous operation at the maximum rated temperature. Observe correct polarity during soldering and installation, and allow the component to cool after soldering before applying power.
