The M39003/03-0171H is an electrochemical capacitor built around tantalum powder deposited on a highly porous anode. The anode is melted in an electrolyte solution and the cathode is formed by pressing the tantalum powder into a wet mould. The anode body is then welded along with the anode leads. The device is then immersed in an electrolyte solution to form a conducting path between the anode and cathode. This process is known as wetting and it forms an electrical connection between the anode and cathode.

The capacitor\'s operation is based on the principle of capacitance. This process is created when the anode and cathode are charged, and a current flows between them creating a stored electrical charge. The amount of charge stored is proportional to the applied voltage and the capacitance of the device. When the applied voltage is removed, the charge is retained due to the capacitor\'s dielectric properties.
