About Capacitor

A capacitor is a passive electronic component that stores electrical energy in an electric field. It consists of two conductors separated by an insulator. When a voltage is applied across the conductors, one accumulates a positive charge and the other a negative charge. The amount of charge stored depends on the capacitance, which is determined by the size of the conductors, the distance between them, and the properties of the insulating material. The earliest forms of capacitors were created in the 1740s, when European experimenters discovered that electric charge could be stored in water-filled glass jars known as Leyden jars. Over time, capacitors evolved from these early designs to include a variety of dielectric materials and construction methods, leading to the diverse range of capacitor types used in various electronic circuits for filtering, timing, and bypassing applications.

Properties of Capacitor

The fundamental property of capacitor is the capacitance, which is the measure of the amount of electrical charge a capacitor can store, measured in farads (F). Capacitors also have a working voltage, which is the maximum voltage that can be applied without causing damage. Another important property is the leakage current, which is the small amount of current that can pass through the dielectric material separating the conductors. Capacitors also have a specified working temperature range, within which they can operate effectively. Finally, some capacitors are polarised, meaning they require the correct polarity of the applied voltage to function properly. Also, capacitors can be made in a variety of shapes and sizes, using different dielectric materials such as ceramic, film, or electrolytic, each with their own advantages and disadvantages.

Manufacturing Process of Capacitor

The process begins with the preparation of raw materials, where the metal parts such as the shell, bottom, and cover are cut and formed. These parts are then welded together to create the capacitor container. Next, the capacitor core is manufactured by winding the dielectric materials, such as aluminum foil and polypropylene film, into the capacitor components. The components are then assembled, and the capacitor core is subjected to withstand voltage tests to ensure quality.

After the core is assembled, it is pressed to the appropriate dimensions, and various non-electrical and electrical tests are performed to verify the capacitor's performance and safety. These tests may include noise detection, light wave detection, and high-frequency pulse current measurement. Finally, the capacitor undergoes a thorough inspection and is packaged for delivery.

Capacitor Production Process

The production of capacitors involves several steps, such as:

Electrode Material Preparation

Step 1: Preparation of Aluminum Foil

High-purity aluminum foil is used as the electrode material in electrolytic capacitors. The aluminum foil is etched to increase its surface area.

Chemical reaction (etching): Al + 3 HCl → AlCl3 + 3/2 H2

Dielectric Material Preparation

Step 1: Formation of Aluminum Oxide Layer

The etched aluminum foil is anodised to form a thin layer of aluminum oxide (Alâ‚‚O3), which acts as the dielectric material.

Chemical reaction (anodising): 2 Al + 3 H2O → Al2O3 + 3 H2

Assembly of Capacitors

Step 1: Winding or Stacking

The prepared electrode and dielectric materials are wound or stacked together to form the capacitor core. For electrolytic capacitors, a liquid or solid electrolyte is also included.

Step 2: Encapsulation

The capacitor core is encapsulated in a protective casing to ensure stability and protect it from environmental factors. The casing is often made of plastic or metal.

Step 3: Termination

The capacitor is then equipped with leads or terminals for electrical connection to circuits.

Applications and Drivers of Capacitor

The primary applications for capacitors include the power generation and distribution sector, as well as the telecom, computer, consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial sectors.  Capacitors play a crucial role in power generation and distribution, helping to prevent ripple currents and smooth out DC bus voltage variations.  In the automotive industry, capacitors are used in electric vehicles to keep semiconductors safe and suppress harmful high frequency components generated by switching devices in the drive system. Additionally, the demand for capacitors is increasing due to rising demand for control circuits, inverter main circuits, switching mode power supplies, and computer motherboards. The capacitor market is driven by the increasing demand for consumer electronics products, growing demand for premium smartphones, and rising production of electric vehicles.
