In practice, capacitors deviate from the ideal capacitor equation in several aspects. Some of these, such as leakage current and parasitic effects are linear, or can be analyzed as nearly linear, and can be accounted for by adding virtual components to form an equivalent circuit. The usual methods of network analysis can then be applied. In other cases, such as with breakdown voltage, the effe

65 1.1 Principle of electrolytic capacitors 66 Electrolytic capacitors consist of two electrodes (anode and cathode), a film oxide layer acting as a 67 dielectric and an electrolyte. The electrolyte brings the negative potential of the cathode closer to the 68 dielectric via ionic transport in the electrolyte (see Figure 2).
The electrolyte must adhere to the whole surface of the anode and cathode foils to have a higher capacitance. It can also repair defects in the anode oxide film as seen before. The nature of the electrolyte influences the temperature and frequency characteristics response of the capacitor (Fig. 4. 5).
Mechanisms and failure modes according to the stress in an electrolytic capacitor. A normal use of the capacitor leads to the evaporation of the electrolyte and the repair of the oxide layer. These are two causes of electrolyte disappearance, which is the main cause of capacitor degradation under normal conditions.
