M39003/01-7258/TR

M39003/01-7258/TR are tantalum capacitors, also known as a condenser, which are components used to store energy in an electrical field. They are popularly used in electronic circuits due to their small size, low cost, and low equivalent series resistance (ESR).

The M39003/01-7258/TR capacitor consists of two properly separated electrodes filled with tantalum pentoxide dielectric, which is sealed in a metal housing that acts as a second electrode. By applying a voltage to the main electrode and using the case as a ground, an electrical field is created between the two parts. This field accumulates electrical energy in the capacitor, creating a charge.

When a stable voltage is applied to the capacitor, a certain amount of charge will accumulate based on the capacitance set by the manufacturer. To measure the amount of charge present in the capacitor, it can be discharged using a resistor. This is referred to as discharging a capacitor. When the capacitor is completely discharged, it is said to be in a "steady state".

Capacitors are primarily used in electronic circuits to decouple power supplies from sensitive electronic components, or to store energy for a short period of time. Due to their small size, tantalum capacitors are often used to increase the capacitance of an electronic circuit without taking up too much board space. They are also used to reduce current surges, create filter networks, or in oscillator circuits.

The M39003/01-7258/TR capacitor has a working voltage of 16V, a capacitance of 100 µF, and an ESR value of 0.1 ohms. It is designed for use in automotive electronic applications that require a reliable high performance capacitor.

In summary, the M39003/01-7258/TR capacitor is a tantalum capacitor that is used in many applications due to its small size, low cost, and low ESR value. It is primarily used to decouple power supplies from sensitive components, store energy for a short period of time, or in filter networks.
