199D476X96R3D6V1

Tantalum capacitors are polarized capacitors made from tantalum metal. The unique properties of tantalum, such as superior electrical conductivity, high corrosion resistance, and low temperature coefficient of capacitance, make it an ideal material for small form factor capacitors. Tantalum capacitors are often expressed in alpha-numeric codes, where the code "199D476X96R3D6V1" indicates the specific characteristics of the component and its application field and working principle.

The main distinguishing characteristics of the 199D476X96R3D6V1 tantalum capacitor are its capacitance and voltage ratings. The numerical values indicate that the capacitor is rated for a capacitance of 47µF and a maximum working voltage of 6V DC. The "X" between the capacitance value and the voltage rating indicates that this is a commercial grade part. Commercial grade parts can be used in a variety of applications such as medical equipment, consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial automation.

The 199D476X96R3D6V1 tantalum capacitor also has two associated failure ratings. The first is the DCL rating or leakage current, which indicates the amount of current which the capacitor can steadily leak when connected to a given voltage. The other failure rate is DF, which means the failure rate for the device usually expressed as a percentage of devices which fail during a given time period.

The working principle of the 199D476X96R3D6V1 tantalum capacitor is the same as other capacitors; it stores an electrical charge through a dielectric material. As the capacitor is connected to an electrical source, voltage begins to build up, creating an electric field in the dielectric material. This electric field attracts and stores positive and negative charges on both sides of the capacitor, enabling it to store much higher amounts of charge than other dielectric materials. When the capacitor is disconnected from the source, the electrical field dissipates, releasing the stored charges.

Tantalum capacitors, including the 199D476X96R3D6V1, have many applications including power management, energy storage, and signal filtering. In power management, tantalum capacitors can provide voltage regulation and various types of voltage elimination. As energy storage devices, they can provide a short burst of current when the required power is greater than what the source can supply. Tantalum capacitors are used in signal filtering to reduce noise from a higher frequency signal.

In conclusion, the 199D476X96R3D6V1 tantalum capacitor has many characteristics that make it well-suited for a variety of applications. It has a high capacitance, a maximum working voltage of 6V DC, and two associated failure ratings - DCL and DF. Additionally, it is able to store a large amount of charge due to its unique dielectric material. Its applications include, power management, energy storage, and signal filtering.
