TL;DR: In this article, an electrolytic capacitor that is configured to be embedded into a circuit board is provided, and the upper surfaces of these exposed anode and cathode termination portions are mounted to the circuit board.
Abstract: An electrolytic capacitor that is configured to be embedded into a circuit board is provided. The electrolytic capacitor contains a capacitor element, anode and cathode terminations, and a case that encapsulates the capacitor element and leaves at least a portion of the anode and cathode terminations exposed that extend outwardly from opposite ends of the case. Each of the terminations possesses an upper surface that faces toward the capacitor element and a lower surface that faces away from the capacitor element. In contrast to conventional surface-mounted electrolytic capacitors, the upper surfaces of these exposed anode and cathode termination portions are mounted to the circuit board. In this manner, the capacitor may essentially be mounted “upside down” so that some or all of its thickness becomes embedded within the board itself, thereby minimizing the height profile of the capacitor on the board.
