M39003/01-8159/TR

Tantalum capacitors are electronic components that store electric charge and earn their name by using a special material called “tantalum” as the main component of their construction. These capacitors are widely used in electronic circuits, as they offer several advantages over other types of capacitors. The most notable advantage of tantalum capacitors is their robustness, which makes them well suited for applications in which the capacitor must withstand severe weather environments. They also have a very low leakage current, which allows them to be used in sensitive analog circuits. In addition, their high capacitance allows them to store higher amounts of energy than many other types of capacitors.

The M39003/01-8159/TR is one type of tantalum capacitor and is used in many different industrial and consumer applications, such as power supplies, computers, cell phones, medical equipment, and more. The “TR” in the model name denotes a “tantalum wet” design, meaning that the capacitor has an electrolyte (wet electrolyte) incorporated into its structure. This construction makes them very robust, as the electrolyte helps protect the capacitor against moisture, corrosion, and heat. The “01-8159” part of the model name refers to the capacitor’s physical size, which is 12.5mm in diameter and 8.9mm tall.

The M39003/01-8159/TR is a polarized, solid aluminum capacitor that offers excellent voltage handling, high capacitance, and very low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance). It is capable of handling a voltage of up to 50V and offers a capacitance range of 0.1uF - 10.0uF. The low ESR makes this capacitor an excellent choice for high current applications, such as those involving motor control or LED lighting.

The working principle of the M39003/01-8159/TR is quite simple. When a voltage is applied to the capacitor, it stores energy in the form of an electric field between its two electrodes. This electric field is created by the movement of electrons, which are attracted to the positive electrode and repelled from the negative electrode. This electric field then stores energy until the voltage is removed. When the voltage is removed, the electrons are then released and the stored energy is discharged.

The M39003/01-8159/TR tantalum capacitor is an excellent choice for many applications, due to its robust construction, high capacitance, and low ESR. Its versatility and durability makes it a great option for many different types of circuits and devices, and its cost-effectiveness makes it a good choice for industrial and commercial applications as well. The capacitor’s simple working principle also makes it easy to understand and use effectively.
