elektrolyyttikapasit
Elektrolyyttikapasit is a Finnish term that translates to "electrolytic capacitors" in English. These are a type of capacitor where one of the electrodes is an electrolyte, typically in liquid or solid form, which forms a thin insulating oxide layer on the surface of the other electrode. This oxide layer acts as the dielectric.
Electrolytic capacitors are known for their high capacitance values relative to their size and cost. This makes
However, electrolytic capacitors have limitations. They are polarized, meaning they must be connected in the correct
The most common type is the aluminum electrolytic capacitor, which uses an aluminum foil for one electrode
