Surface Mount Electrolytic (SME) capacitors are measured according to the diameter of the can mounted on top of the terminations. Sizes range from 3mm to 24mm in diameter. The most popular sizes are listed below. Please call if different sizes are needed. These components come packaged on plastic embossed carrier tape. Standard reel sizes are 15".
