Tantalum Capacitors

The 299D106X0010BB1E3 is one of many varieties of tantalum capacitors commonly used in a variety of applications. They are simple and reliable components used to store electrical energy, provide the necessary electrical current, or serve as filters or frequency-discriminating circuits in both low- and high-powered electronic circuits.

Application Field

Tantalum capacitors, such as the 299D106X0010BB1E3, are often used in high-frequency oscillators, power supplies, radio-frequency (RF) amplifiers, decoupling circuits, and polarization circuits. They are also popular for applications requiring low ESR (equivalent series resistance) and capacitance values of between 100 μF and 4.7 μF.

The 299D106X0010BB1E3 can also be used in various medical equipment, like patient monitoring systems and X-ray machines, as well as in the automotive, aerospace, and military electronics industries. Moreover, these devices can also be found in other applications such as power filters, data transmission and reception, and audio output stages.

Working Principle

The working principle behind the 299D106X0010BB1E3 is similar to that of other tantalum capacitors. It stores electrical energy between two electrodes, one of which consists of an insulating tantalum dioxide layer. An anode and a cathode are attached to each other and connected to an electrolyte, usually a water solution. When an external electrical input is applied to the capacitor, an electric current increases the charge stored on the capacitor plate. This stored charge acts as a source of electrical energy for the device. As such, it can serve as a source of electrical energy, current, or even a filter.

Tantalum capacitors are also noted for their low leakage currents. This is because they use a special dielectric material called tantalum pentoxide, which is solid and has high resistance to leakage current. This, in turn, helps to increase the reliability and life span of the component.

The 299D106X0010BB1E3 also features low impedance and excellent heat stability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is available in various configurations and sizes, and is suitable for a variety of capacitance values.
