Tantalum Capacitors

Tantalum capacitors are electrolytic capacitors which use tantalum metal for the anode and concentric components to provide the necessary electrical insulation. They are used in many electronic devices and their wide range of applications provide an advantage over many traditional capacitor construction techniques. The M39003/01-7052H is a typical example of a tantalum capacitor.

The M39003/01-7052H is a cylindrical component with a case body made from a hard black plastic that is sealed with epoxy and is rated for a maximum temperature of 125°C. It has two metal heads, the anode and the cathode, plus the electrolytic element which is embedded into the body and provides the electrical insulation needed. The anode is connected to a metal terminal and the cathode is sealed with epoxy.

Application Field

Tantalum capacitors are widely used in different electronic products due to their longer life span and excellent reliability. Not only do these capacitors have a much higher voltage rating than aluminum electrolytic capacitors, they can also handle a higher current without any difficulty. They can also operate well at much higher frequency than aluminum and other traditional capacitors. Additionally, the small size and structure of these capacitors make them perfect for use in space-modular designs.

The M39003/01-7052H tantalum capacitor is primarily used in industrial and military applications. It is used in various types of electronic components and circuit boards and it is also used in power supplies and telecommunications systems.

Working Principle

The M39003/01-7052H tantalum capacitor works in the same way as other tantalum capacitors. It uses an electrolyte as the medium between the cathode and the anode. This electrolyte then forms a type of dielectric barrier between these two electrodes. When a current flows through the electrolyte, the anode and cathode come into contact and the capacitance is created.

During the operation of a tantalum capacitor, the anode and cathode are kept apart by the electric field that is created by the applied voltage. This electric field causes an electric current to pass between the two electrodes. The current is then transformed into a capacitance which is stored in the capacitor.

The M39003/01-7052H tantalum capacitor is also designed to have a high level of stability in terms of thermal reliability. This stability is achieved by using a solid tantalum oxide dielectric that is more resistant to changes in temperature. Therefore, this capacitor is perfect for use in industrial or avionic applications where temperature extremes may be encountered.

Conclusion

The M39003/01-7052H tantalum capacitor is a reliable and versatile capacitor that is used in many industrial and military applications. Its high voltage rating, long life span and small size make it the ideal choice for designing small appliances or devices. The use of a solid tantalum oxide dielectric also adds to the temperature stability of the capacitor, making it perfect for use in avionic and other extreme temperature applications.
