Tantalum Capacitors
Tantalum capacitors are solid electrolytic capacitors that are made of tantalum. A tantalum capacitor is an electronic component that utilizes the element of tantalum in its construction. Tantalum capacitors are polarized capacitors with superior frequency and temperature characteristics compared to other types such as aluminum or ceramic capacitors or film capacitors. These capacitors are widely used in various applications, from commercial and consumer electronics to the military and aerospace industry.
299D336X9004C2TE3 application field and working principle
The 299D336X9004C2TE3 is a standard tantalum capacitor and is used in a wide range of applications and components. This particular capacitor is a surface mount type capacitor, meaning it is designed to be attached directly onto the surface of the component. It is extremely reliable and offers an extended life cycle and high temperature operation compared to other capacitor types.
In terms of its working principle, the tantalum capacitor is essentially a charged component. It stores electrical energy within its structure without the need for any external circuits. This is done by a process called electrochemical double layer (EDL) to create a semi-permeable membrane. When voltage is applied across the capacitor, an electrical current is then generated, causing ions from the electrolyte solution to accumulate at either end of the membrane, resulting in a voltage drop, which is the amount of energy stored by the capacitor.
The 299D336X9004C2TE3 is capable of providing higher efficiency in relation to stability and impedance. It has a temperature range from -55°C to 85°C and is designed to withstand voltages of up to 16V. It also offers excellent electrical characteristics, with an ESR at 120MHz of less than 0.044 ohms. This capacitor is used in many applications because of its reliability, such as in power supplies and switch-mode power supplies, computers, consumer products, automotive electronics, medical equipment, and telecommunications.
In summary, the 299D336X9004C2TE3 is a high reliability, high temperature, and high frequency solid electrolytic tantalum capacitor. Its extended life and excellent electrical characteristics make it ideal for use in a wide range of applications.
