25V 47µF Electrolytic Capacitors (10 Pieces)

Description

What it is

Electrolytic capacitors are fundamental components for managing electrical currents and filtering voltages in electronic projects, such as those based on Arduino. This specific item includes 10 pieces of electrolytic capacitors with a capacitance of 47 microfarads (µF) and a maximum voltage rating of 25 volts.

Features

• Maximum Voltage: 25V
• Capacitance: 47 µF
• Physical Dimensions: 5*11 (check the datasheet)

What it is for

Electrolytic capacitors are used to create simple passive filters, filtering the square wave generated by a signal generator when connected in series with a resistor. They are particularly suitable for Arduino projects that require the management of electrical currents or the filtering of voltages.

Tutorial: How to use Electrolytic Capacitor 25V 47UF

This electrolytic capacitor is ideal for Arduino projects that require the management of electrical currents or the filtering of voltages. It is particularly useful for beginners who are learning to work with circuits.

What you need
