M39003/01-8119

Tantalum capacitors are components of Electronic circuits which comprise of a main element, which is a solid Tantalum metal, with a dielectric layer of oxide formed on top of it as well as a conductive plate at both end. The M39003/01-8119 is an axial-leaded tantalum capacitor specially designed for applications in comparatively high frequency electronics and other switching circuits. The enameled copper wire that is used as the leads in this component is flexible and also conforms to the UL1651 temperatures uniformity test.

The most common applications of the M39003/01-8119 are in high frequency epoxy board and power supply circuits. Its operation is pretty simple and is based on the principle of electrostatics. This is also known as the capacitance principle. The main element in the capacitor which is the tantalum metal acts as an insulator and provides insulation between the two plates. The electric field between them generates a certain amount of charge, which can be stored in the dielectric layer of oxide. This stored charge can be used in a variety of electronic circuity depending on the nature of the application.

The M39003/01-8119 is suitable for applications involving switching because of its high breakdown voltage. Its operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C and it also has a high frequency rating with maximum of 2 MHZ. It also has a high ripple current capacity and excellent temperature stability. It is most used in high voltage electronic circuits and is handy when small size is important. It is also preferred when reliability and rugged construction are key requirements.

The working principle of the M39003/01-8119 is that the stored electric charge can be used for various applications. The electrostatic field between the two plates is such that when the charge is applied to one plate, it gets attracted by the other plate. This attraction creates a potential difference between the two plates and a current is produced in accordance with the equation given by Ohm\'s Law. The amount of current, which is called a "Coulombic" current, is determined by the amount of charge applied to the plates. This current can be used for a variety of application such as for powering a resistive load or driving an amplifier circuit.

In summary, Tantalum capacitors such as the M39003/01-8119 are devices which have a number of useful applications in high frequency electronics and power supply circuits. They utilize the capacitance principle to store and transfer electric charge. These devices are suitable for application involving switching, since they have a good breakdown voltage. The operating temperature range for them is also wide and they have a high ripple current capacity. Finally, they are quite reliable and have a rugged construction which makes them ideal for a variety of high frequency electronics applications.
