Electrolytic Capacitor (16V) 1000uF (5pcs)

The Electrolytic Capacitor (16V) 1000uF is a polarised aluminium electrolytic capacitor with a capacitance of 1000 µF and a 16 V voltage rating, sold in a pack of 5. Its large capacitance makes it a standard choice for smoothing rectified DC, filtering power rails and supplying current peaks to motors, servos and LED strips in 5 V and 12 V circuits.

Electrolytic Capacitor (16V) 1000uF Specifications

• Capacitance: 1000 µF
• Rated voltage: 16 V DC
• Type: aluminium electrolytic, polarised
• Leads: 2; the longer lead is positive and the stripe on the body marks the negative side
• Pack size: 5 pieces

Electrolytic Capacitor (16V) 1000uF Applications

• Smoothing after a bridge rectifier in linear power supplies
• Bulk capacitor on 5 V rails for Arduino, servos and motors
• Input and output capacitors for regulators and DC-DC modules
• Across the power input of WS2812 addressable LED strips
• Supply filtering in audio amplifiers

What's in the Box

• 5 × 1000 µF 16 V electrolytic capacitors

Tip: Always connect the stripe (negative) side to GND; a reversed or over-voltage electrolytic capacitor can overheat and burst. Keep the circuit voltage well below 16 V, so it suits 5 V and 12 V rails but not higher voltages.
