M39003/01-8358/HSD

Tantalum capacitors are one of the more recent types of capacitor developed. They\'re constructed out of special mineral called tantalum, which is a poor conductor of electricity, and an excellent insulator. The capacitor is sealed in a small metal case, such as with metal oxide film (MOV) capacitors, or an epoxy-encased version, such as with aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The capacitor has a positive and negative terminal that can be connected directly to a circuit.

The M39003/01-8358/HSD is a specialized type of tantalum capacitor that is designed to be used in high-reliability and space-constrained applications, such as aerospace and military applications. The capacitance and principle of operation is the same as other capacitors, but the design has been modified to accommodate the high vibration and electrical demands of these environments. The capacitor is constructed in a cylindrical package, with a ceramic-filled capacitor element and open anode discs packed into the cylinder. This design results in a lightweight and small footprint capacitor that provides excellent high-frequency performance. The capacitor is rated at 10 volts, and can handle currents up to 5A.

The M39003/01-8358/HSD tantalum capacitor works the same way that most capacitors do. An electric charge is stored in the dielectric between two metal plates. When a voltage is applied to the capacitor, the electric charge stored between the plates increases, resulting in a larger capacitance. The size of the capacitance is based on the design of the capacitor and the material used for the dielectric medium. The metal plates of the M39003/01-8358/HSD are filled with a ceramic dielectric, which is chosen for its excellent dielectric properties, and for its ability to withstand the effects of high vibration environments.

The ceramic dielectric used in the M39003/01-8358/HSD is also designed to withstand a wide range of temperatures, from -55°C to +85°C. This makes the capacitor suitable for use in high temperature environments, such as automotive and aerospace applications. The capacitance also remains stable over the entire temperature range, which results in more reliable circuit performance. The capacitor also offers a high degree of immunity to voltage spikes, making it suitable for use with unregulated power supplies.

The M39003/01-8358/HSD tantalum capacitor is ideal for a wide range of applications where size, weight, good insulation and high capacitance are critical factors. These include military and aerospace equipment, industrial electronics, medical electronics, automotive electronics, and telecommunications gear. The capacitor provides excellent high frequency performance and is highly reliable, making it an ideal choice for high-voltage high-reliability applications.
