Abstract

A circuit is provided which incorporates a solid electrolytic capacitor between a power source and a load. The capacitor comprises: a capacitor element including a chip body and an anode wire projecting from the chip body; an anode lead electrically connected to the anode wire; a cathode lead paired with the anode lead and electrically connected to the chip body; an auxiliary lead separate from the anode and cathode leads; a resin package enclosing the capacitor element, part of the anode lead, part of the cathode lead, and part of the auxiliary lead; and a fuse wire for electrically connecting the auxiliary lead to the anode lead within the resin package. Each of the anode, cathode and auxiliary leads has an inner end located in the resin package, and an outer end projecting from the resin package. Further, the anode lead of the capacitor is electrically connected to the power source without intervention of any other electronic element.
