Tantalum Capacitors

Tantalum capacitors are electronic components used in a vast range of applications. This type of capacitor is composed of two plates of tantalum, which are separated by a dielectric material such as an oxide. The capacitance of the capacitor will depend on the size and shape of the plates, as well as the dielectric material used. The most common application of tantalum capacitors is for supplying energy, but they can also be used to store energy in addition to being used as filters and signal conditioning circuits.

13008-060MESZ/HR Application Field and Working Principle

The 13008-060MESZ/HR is a type of tantulum capacitor. This type of capacitor is designed for low-voltage, high-current applications such as switch-mode power supplies and battery-backed-up power systems. The capacitor has a single winding with a maximum rated voltage of 6V and a maximum rated temperature of 105 degrees Celsius. As with all capacitor types, the 13008-060MESZ/HR capacitor works on the principle of the accumulation of electrical charge. Its function is to store electrical energy in the form of an electric field between its two parallel plates. When the voltage applied to the plates reaches the rated value, the capacitor will discharge the stored energy. As the capacitor discharges, the voltage across the plates will decrease until the capacitor is fully discharged.

Tantalum capacitors are able to handle high current and vibration due to their high dielectric strength. The capacitors also have low equivalent series resistance (ESR), making them suitable for applications requiring low power dissipation. Furthermore, these components have a longer life span than other capacitors due to their low-leakage characteristics. The 13008-060MESZ/HR is a surface-mount device, meaning it can be soldered onto printed circuit boards.
