Abstract

A hybrid polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor and a method for manufacturing a capacitor are disclosed. In an embodiment a capacitor includes a first winding element having an anode foil, separators and a cathode foil which are wound around an axis and which are covered by a conductive polymer, wherein the first winding element includes a liquid electrolyte and a second winding element having an anode foil, separators and a cathode foil which are wound around an axis and which are covered by a conductive polymer, wherein the second winding element includes a liquid electrolyte, wherein each winding element has a height of more than 12 mm, wherein the first and second winding elements are arranged in a common can, wherein each winding element includes a tab connected to a respective anode foil and a tab connected to a respective cathode foil, wherein the tabs connected to the anode foils are connected to each other and the tabs connected to the cathode foils are connected to each other such that the first and second winding elements are electrically connected parallel to each other, and wherein the capacitor is a hybrid polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor.
