199D336X0016D2B1

A tantalum capacitor, often referred to as a tantalum electrolytic capacitor, is a type of electrolytic capacitor, a component of electronic circuits. It typically consists of a pellet of tantalum metal as an anode, covered by an insulating oxide layer that forms the dielectric, surrounded by conductive material as a cathode. Comparing with other capacitor types, tantalum capacitors have high capacitance with smaller size, and they are more expensive than most other capacitor types.

The 199D336X0016D2B1 is a model of tantalum capacitors and has a capacitance of 330µf and a rated voltage of 16v. Its size is D=6.3, L=5.8, and H=1.6mm. The 199D336X0016D2B1 is used for applications such as high-frequency circuits and power supply decoupling in a wide variety of fields, ranging from consumer electronics, automotive electronics, medical equipment and military weapons.

The working principle of a tantalum capacitor is similar to that of other electrolytic capacitors. When there is a voltage applied on its electrodes, electric charges will be accumulated in its electrodes. The electrolyte dielectric is formed by a thin tantalum oxide layer, so the resistance to electric charges is relatively lower than other types of capacitors. As the electric charges continues to accumulate, so does the stored electrical energy in the capacitor, and it is the ability to store electrical energy that makes tantalum capacitors so useful in so many applications.

In addition, a tantalum capacitor has some unique features, such as low ESR, high stability, high capacitance/volume ratio, and low leakage current. The low ESR of a tantalum capacitor provides superior filtering performance and ensures excellent efficiency of power circuits, while its high stability leads to precise time constants. Its high capacitance/volume ratio and low leakage ensure the capacitor performs better in high-frequency and high-voltage circuits.

To sum up, the 199D336X0016D2B1 tantalum capacitor is an important component in a wide range of applications due to its small size, high capacitance and low ESR. Its working principle involves the accumulation of electric charges on its electrodes and the resulting stored electrical energy in the capacitor. This gives it unique features such as low ESR, high stability, high capacitance/volume ratio, and low leakage current.
