In summary, Chemi-Con’s conductive polymer aluminum solid capacitors are very similar in structure to standard electrolytic capacitors with the exception of the electrolyte material used. Contrary to aluminum electrolytic capacitors that employ liquid electrolyte, conductive polymer capacitors employ a solid conductive polymer for an electrolyte. This change in composition provides many features including: low ESR, stable electric values over a wide range of temperatures, high reliability, fast transient response time for CPU application, and RoHS compliance.
