Introduction What Is a Polymer Capacitor?
ECAS series (polymer-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor) No. C2T2CPS-063 Introduction If you take a look at the main board of an electronic device such as a personal computer, you’re likely to see some of the six types of capacitors shown below (Fig. 1). Common types of capacitors include tantalum electrolytic capacitors (MnO2 type and polymer type), aluminum electrolytic capacitors (electrolyte can type, polymer can type, and chip type), and MLCC. Figure 1. Main Types of Capacitors What Is a Polymer Capacitor? There are many other types of capacitors, such as film capacitors and niobium capacitors, but here we will describe polymer capacitors, a type of capacitor produced by Murata among others. In both tantalum electrolytic capacitors and aluminum electrolytic capacitors, a polymer capacitor is a type of electrolytic capacitor in which a conductive polymer is used as the cathode. In a polymer-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the anode is made of aluminum foil and the cathode is made of a conductive polymer. In a polymer-type tantalum electrolytic capacitor, the anode is made of the metal tantalum and the cathode is made of a conductive polymer. Figure 2 shows an example of this structure. Figure 2. Example of Structure of Conductive Polymer Aluminum Capacitor In conventional electrolytic capacitors, an electrolyte (electrolytic solution) or manganese dioxide (MnO2) was used as the cathode. Using a conductive polymer instead provides many advantages, making it possible to achieve a lower equivalent series resistance (ESR), more stable thermal characteristics, improved safety, and longer service life. As can be seen in Fig. 1, polymer capacitors have lower ESR than conventional electrolytic Copyright © muRata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. -

Different technologies are used in high-voltage capacitor manufacturing process, and at all stages of this process polymeric films must be used, along with an encapsulating material, which can be either liquid, solid or gaseous. These materials play major roles in the lifespan and reliability of components.

Suggestion of the Supercapacitor(EDLC) Application to the Electrical Characteristic Tester
Supercapacitor (EDLC) Application Note No. C2M1CXS-163A(E) Suggestion of the Supercapacitor(EDLC) Application to the Electrical Characteristic Tester 1. Summary Supercapacitor, also known as EDLC or supercap, has higher-capacity than ceramic capacitor or electrolytic capacitor. And supercapacitor is an energy storage device having longer life than a battery. In addition, Murata’s supercapacitor can handle the output power up to 50W by realizing super low ESR approximately 40mΩ (DMF series example) At the measurement environment that a high peak electric current runs through the load instantly, our supercapacitor can assist such peak current. By this effect, it is possible to downsize Fig.3 : Measurement Block Diagram with Supercapacitor and reduce power capacity of DC power supply. Besides it contributes to reduce measuring equipment cost and save the Fig.4 and Fig.5 shows each part waveform. electric power of the facilities. Top(Yellow):Load current, Middle(Green):Power line voltage, Bottom(Purple):DC power supply current. 2. Benefits Fig.4: DC power supply only. ①Downsize the DC power supply Fig.5: Supercap is added to DC power supply. Even if the power supply capacity cannot support a peak current, The effect of supercap can be confirmed because the fluctuation it does not matter because supercap can assist it. ②Supercapacitor as a power source of the input voltage is smaller and the peak current of power Because supercap can be charged quickly, it is possible to use supply decreases. supercap as power source at the time of measurement. ③Reduce the cost and Save power of measurement equipment. ④Can be mounted on limited area because of its thinner and smaller shape. -

The Important Points of Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitor Used in Buck Converter Circuit
© 2017 ROHM Co., Ltd. No. 60AP001E Rev.001 2017.4 Application Note Switching Regulator Series The Important Points of Multi-layer Ceramic Capacitor Used in Buck Converter circuit Multi-layer Ceramic Capacitor (MLCC) with large-capacitance can be used as smoothing-capacitor in power supply circuits. Compared to other capacitor types such as an electrolytic capacitor, MLCC differs in frequency characteristics, temperature characteristics, and DC voltage characteristics. Using unmatched MLCC may not obtain required target characteristics for power supply circuit and may cause abnormal operation. This application note explains the important points while using MLCC. Figure1 shows frequency characteristics of all major types of Types of Multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) capacitors. Ripple voltage of output is expected to become smaller by using MLCC in a power circuit. However in earlier MLCC can be broadly classified into two types; for temperature power-IC designs, usage of MLCC with ultra-low ESR was not compensation and for high-dielectric constant. MLCC for considered. Therefore, phase of feedback circuit rotates too temperature compensation uses Titanium oxide (TiO2) and much at high-frequency area, causing power circuit to operate Calcium zirconate (CaZrO3) as material for its paraelectric. unstably and may cause oscillation in worst case. When MLCC Therefore, it cannot suit for capacitor with large-capacitance as has to be used at any cost, connecting a low-ohmic resistor more relative permittivity is small, about 20 to 300. Moreover, since than 10mΩ in series is recommended, and may deteriorate the relative permittivity changes linearly with temperature, the frequency characteristics. temperature coefficient can be restricted between +100 to - 4700ppm/°C by adjusting composition of the dielectric material.
