100uf 16v capacitor

This is a device that stores electrical energy in an electric field. It is a passive electronic component with two terminals. It is polarized and has a capacitance of 100uf. It is a perfect candidate for breadboarding and perf boarding. It has a voltage rating of 16V.

This Electrolytic Capacitor have polarity. Meaning they have a positive and negative pin. The pin which is long is the positive pin and the pin which is short is the negative pin. You can also identify the polarity using the negative strip on the capacitor label. As shown in the picture above the negative pin will be directly under the negative symbol.
