Abstract: A capacitor includes an anode body, a dielectric layer adjacent to the anode body, a cathode layer adjacent to the dielectric layer, and an enclosure that substantially encloses the anode body, the dielectric layer, and the cathode body. The enclosure has an upper side and an underside and is made of a castable material. The capacitor includes an anode contact having a contact section on the underside of the enclosure, an anode conductor that connects the anode body to the anode contact, and a cathode conductor that contacts the cathode layer and that exits the enclosure. The cathode conductor is a plate having holes at a portion of the cathode conductor inside the enclosure. The holes are at least partially filled with castable material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a capacitor with a capacitance (1), comprising an anode body (2) with a dielectric layer (3) and a cathode layer (4), which is enclosed by an enclosure (5) with an upper side (6) and a underside (7). Further, the capacitor comprises an anode conductor (8) that contacts the anode body (2) and is connected to an anode contact (9), which feature a contact section (10) arranged on the underside (7) of the enclosure (5). Further, the capacitor comprises a cathode conductor (11) that contacts the cathode layer (4), which is fixed to the upper side of the capacitance (1), which exits the enclosure (5) in a straight line, and which is connectively connected to a cathode contact (12) arranged on the underside of the enclosure (5). By dispensing with bending the cathode plate, volume utilization can be improved.
