In Reply to: Are Electrolytic caps made smaller now? posted by hairydog on January 31, 2007 at 15:54:40:
Many caps employ flash cap technology. The capacitance is determined by the surface area of the parallel surfaces. Manufacturers can increase the area by acid etching the surface, thus roughening it, and thus giving higher capacitances in a smaller package.
I am not convinced it is 'better' in performance than the older smooth film caps, however.
