Tantalum Capacitors

Tantalums capacitors are electronic components made of tantalum and two lead terminals in electrolytic form. They are used mostly in DC and AC applications, but can also be used in pulse applications. These capacitors usually have a low internal resistance and are used in a wide range of electronic applications such as RF applications, signal processing, circuit protection and high-temperature applications.

M39003/03-0114 Application Field and Working Principle

Tantalum capacitors, as the name implies, are made of tantalum and are widely used in the electronic industry for various applications. The M39003/03-0114 is a type of tantalum capacitor and is designed specifically for RF and high-voltage applications. Its features include temperature stability, low-induced noise, and high-impact strength.

The M39003/03-0114 is a surface mount tantalum capacitor, has a high-voltage rating of 15V and a maximum capacitance of 100-500 μF. It is suitable for use in high-frequency and high-voltage applications and offers good thermal and mechanical stability. Additionally, this capacitor is designed to be resistant to temperature and humidity variations.

The working principle of this capacitor is simple. It relies on the ability of the material, which is tantalum, to store electrical energy. When a voltage is applied to the terminals of a tantalum capacitor, the electric field created in the space between the two plates causes the material to absorb the electrons to form an electric dipole. This dipole creates a positive and negative charge on the two plates, which results in electrostatic energy stored between the two plates.

This stored energy is then released as a current when the voltage is removed from the terminals, allowing for the release of the electric energy stored in the capacitor. This property of the material is the reason why tantalum capacitors are widely used for high-frequency and high-voltage applications.

The M39003/03-0114 tantalum capacitor is designed for use in a wide range of applications, including but not limited to medical, automotive, handheld, and machine tool applications. Its low internal resistance makes it suitable for use in various RF applications, such as high-power RFID tags, wireless transmitters, and medical implants.

In addition to its high-voltage and temperature-stability characteristics, the reliability and life of the M39003/03-0114 tantalum capacitor is also improved due to the use of a wide selection of materials and techniques during its manufacture. This makes it an ideal choice for many applications, including those involving temperature extremes.
