Abstract
An electrolytic capacitor includes an anode lead, a cathode lead and a seat plate. The seat plate has two grooves. The anode lead is bent along one of the grooves in the seat plate to be placed in the groove. The cathode lead is bent along the other groove in the seat plate to be placed in the groove. Accordingly, a space will be formed between the anode lead and the edges of one of the grooves in the seat plate, and likewise, between the cathode lead and the edges of the other groove in the seat plate. The anode lead and the cathode lead are mounted to a substrate with solders, and the electrolytic capacitor is mounted to the substrate. Accordingly, enhanced adhesion of the electrolytic capacitor to substrates is achieved.
