Tantalum capacitors are widely used in many electronic applications and are becoming the most popular electrolytic capacitors. The 173D476X9010XE3 tantalum capacitor is a standard device with a small volume and light weight, which makes it a perfect choice for applications with weight and space restrictions, such as power supplies, clocks, memory storage, and data conversion. In addition, these capacitors have excellent performance in terms of offering high capacitance, low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and high ripple current.

Structure of a Tantalum Capacitor

The tantalum capacitor is a polarized capacitor which comprises of a cylindrical body made out of tantalum and an outermost covering made out of sintered anode. The innermost layer is known as the dielectric material and is usually made out of pellets of tantalum pentoxide. There are two metal electrodes which are connected to the case and the sintered anode. The anode serves as the positive terminal and the case is the negative electrode. The case is sealed and washer is used to ensure the air-tight seal.

Working Principle of a Tantalum Capacitor

The 173D476X9010XE3 tantalum capacitor works on the principle of electrostatic charge storage. The electrostatic charge is stored in the dielectric between the electrodes. When a voltage is applied across the capacitor, the electrons are attracted to the positive terminal and starts accumulating near the positive terminal. This adds to the electrostatic charge stored in the dielectric and thus increases the capacitance of the capacitor. When the voltage is removed, the stored charge dissipates and the capacitor returns to the original state.

Applications of a Tantalum Capacitor

Tantalum capacitors are used in a variety of electronic applications such as power supplies, low pass filters, surge suppression, noise suppression, energy storage and switching regulators. The 173D476X9010XE3 is suitable for high-frequency applications, and its small size and light weight makes it an ideal choice for applications with size and weight restrictions. It is also commonly used in signal processing and data acquisition equipment. It is also suitable for high-end audio, automotive, satellite and telecommunications systems due to its high capacitance and low equivalent series resistance.

Advantages of Tantalum Capacitors
