Abstract
The invention relates to a capacitor device comprising the combination of a cylindrical capacitor and a holder for holding the capacitor in a sideways position. The holder includes a capacitor holding part that has an opening at the top and is arc-shaped in cross section, and a mounting part for mounting the holder itself to another device. The capacitor is held in a sideways position in the holding part of the holder with a heat shrinking resin tube interposed therebetween. Accordingly, the height of the capacitor device is reduced, so that the size of the capacitor device can be reduced. In addition, the connection distance between the capacitor device and another electronic device is shortened, so that the inductance can be made smaller.
