2200uF 16V Electrolytic Capacitor, TH - NIC Components NRE-JL Series

Capacitors are ingenious little Electronics Components that are designed to almost act as a reservoir for energy to be stored, with outputs that can either slowly release that energy in a consistent flow, or dump the entire load all at once. This makes them quite diverse in nature, as they can be used to filter and smooth out inconsistent signals into clean, consistent signals, as well as for applications like camera flashes, in which you may need a large charge delivered over a few milliseconds, but require a small battery due to space and weight constraints. These are the two most common use cases for capacitors, although their simple design lends itself well to a good range of other applications too.

When compared to the plethora of capacitors available to Electronics Makers, these 2200μF 16V Electrolytic Capacitors offer a very Low ESR, making them great for circuits in devices like Switch Mode Power Supplies, which would typically have a lot of ripple. However, because of the diverse capabilities of capacitors, as well as the high capacity of Electrolytic Capacitors, these are commonly used in all kinds of different projects. With that being said, if you’re looking for a reliable capacitor, just in a different capacitance or voltage rating, be sure to check out our Dedicated Capacitors Page to find more options to cater to whatever your project demands.

Please Note: These units are priced individually but sold in minimum order quantities of five (5), so as to save on shipping costs and reduce the overall price for each unit.
