F971A476MCC Capacitors

Tantalum Capacitors

Tantalum capacitors are a type of electrolytic capacitors that are manufactured from the rare metal tantalum. All electrolytic capacitors use a dielectric oxide layer to produce a high potential barrier between the two metal plates. The tantalum dielectric oxide layer for these capacitors is usually Ta2O5 and is characterized by its significantly higher potential barrier than regular aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

The F971A476MCC is a tantalum capacitor that can be used for a variety of applications from audio to power conditioning. This capacitor specializes in providing similar values as other more common aluminum electrolytic capacitors while offering a 10 times larger voltage range. It is capable of withstanding approximately 50 volts and is superior in efficiency, size, and heat tolerances.

The working principle of a F971A476MCC tantalum capacitor relies on a strong polarization of the dielectric oxide layer. When a voltage is applied to a plate, it attracts the electrons and causes them to expend energy, creating an electric field between the two plates. This electric field provides the energy needed to power whatever circuit the capacitor is connected to.

The F971A476MCC is designed for long-term use and has a low equivalent series resistance (ESR). It also has a low equivalent internal capacitance (EIC) allowing for improved performance in high-frequency applications as well as increased voltage tolerance. Additionally, these capacitors can tolerate temperature changes better than many other types of capacitors.

One of the advantages of the F971A476MCC is its incredibly broad application range. It is designed to be used in a variety of power applications, from power management to audio and lighting applications. This wide range of applications makes the F971A476MCC a great choice for projects requiring a wide range of voltage capacity between the two plates. This includes anything from low voltage digital circuits to high voltage audio circuits.

The F971A476MCC can also be used in current-limiting applications, meaning that it can prevent over-current situations and limit the amount of current circulating through the circuit. This is done by using the high capacitance of the capacitor, in combination with the low EIC and ESR, to form a very effective passive current-limiting device.

From power management to audio applications, the F971A476MCC offers superior performance in a range of different voltage requirements. Its high voltage tolerance and long-term reliability make it a great choice for any application that requires a reliable and long-lasting Capacitor.
