AI Customer ServiceToo often we get / give the advice to replace all electrolytic capacitors on a PCB when it starts to malfunction (like in DVD player power supply circuit strange behavior. Need help to understand root cause but here are many more examples). Reason seems to be the huge difference in quality for these capacitors.
The main challenge is the degradation mechanisms of the capacitor which involves the factors such as temperature, stress, humidity, aging and others. Fig. 14 shows various factors that influences and affects electronic components in general , .
Utilizing the least mean square (LMS) algorithm to estimate the ESR and the capacitance of the capacitor and by comparing this with the initial capacitor values at the current operating temperature, the health status of the system can be deduced.
When individual capacitors reach the end of their useful life, the system can malfunction. In a system with a capacitor bank, the time it takes for multiple capacitors to fail can vary. As soon as one of them fails, the other capacitor can withstand the increased load and accelerate its deterioration.
A simplified method for detecting changes in capacitor ESR and capacitance is proposed in . The voltage and current of the capacitor are measured and pass through the BPF in the frequency range of the dominant region of ESR or capacitance. The output of BPF is continuously multiplied by the root mean square (rms) calculation.
A good cap in a circuit with good design margins should last years without issues, as the design will accept some degradation of the capacitor over time before failing. Only when you know these two factors would you even be in a position to judge why a capacitor failure occurred. You need to trust your supplier.
