6 FAQs about [Dc energy storage capacitor selection]

What is a DC link capacitor?

In electric vehicle applications, the DC link capacitor is used as a load-balancing energy storage device. The DC link capacitor is placed between the DC (in this case, the battery) and the AC (which is the load side) of the voltage inverter. The capacitor is placed parallel to the battery, which maintains a solid voltage across the inverter.
