Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 0.05 mA leakage current of ECA1HAM101X affect circuit performance in low-power or battery-operated designs?
The ECA1HAM101X has a leakage current of 0.05 mA, which is low enough for most general-purpose power supply filtering applications. In battery-operated designs with strict quiescent current budgets below 1 mA total, this leakage should be accounted for, particularly if the capacitor is connected across an always-on power rail where even microamp leakage accumulates over time.
For a through-hole PCB design requiring 100 µF bulk decoupling, how does the ECA1HAM101X 8 mm body fit standard component footprints?
ECA1HAM101X has an 8 mm diameter body in a radial leaded through-hole package, which matches the common 8 mm pitch radial capacitor footprint used in many standard PCB library templates. The through-hole lead spacing of ECA series capacitors is typically 3.5 mm, allowing it to fit standard 5 mm or 3.5 mm radial capacitor PCB pads without footprint modification.
What is the typical application fit for ECA1HAM101X in audio equipment power stages compared to film capacitors?
ECA1HAM101X provides 100 µF capacitance at a compact 8 mm diameter, making it practical for audio amplifier power rail decoupling where bulk capacitance is needed to suppress low-frequency ripple below 100 Hz. Film capacitors in the same capacitance range would be physically much larger and more expensive, while ECA1HAM101X offers a cost-effective through-hole solution for non-critical audio filtering stages.
Is ECA1HAM101X compliant with REACH chemical safety requirements, and does this affect its procurement for EU-bound products?
Yes, ECA1HAM101X is confirmed REACH-compliant per its published specifications. This means the aluminum electrolytic capacitor does not contain substances of very high concern (SVHC) above regulatory thresholds, which is a mandatory compliance requirement for electronic components sold or assembled into products distributed in European Union markets under REACH Regulation EC 1907/2006.
