Abstract
An electrolytic capacitor with several conductive layer portions, including some anode layers and some cathode layers in alternating arrangement. A set of insulator layers is interleaved with the conductive layers, and the conductive and insulator layers are laminarly stacked with an anode layer being outermost on one surface. The stack is positioned adjacent a metal heat sink, with an outer insulator layer positioned between and closely contacting the stack and the heat sink. The cathode layers may be connected to the heat sink.
