Working Principle

Tantalum capacitors work by taking advantage of the unique physical and chemical properties of the metal. The metal is made up of multiple oxide layers. As a result, it can form an oxide layer when a potential difference is applied across it. This layer is then used as a dielectric for the capacitor. It is ideal because its properties allow it to store a large amount of energy and allow for the easy passing of current through the capacitor.

The M39003/03-0172H capacitors utilize the same principle as other tantalum capacitors but with the added benefit of ultra-low capacitance. This allows it to store energy at a much lower rate than traditional capacitors. This makes it ideal for a variety of applications.
