T491C336M016ZTAU00

T491C336M016ZTAU00 is a series of tantalum capacitors designed to provide high reliability and extended life performance. It is primarily used in applications that require ultra-low leakage and that operate in temperature extremes. The T491C336M016ZTAU00 series capacitors are available in SMD, through-hole, and surface-mount packages.

Tantalum capacitors are capacitors that use tantalum metal for its anode. They are constructed using a tantalum disc for the anode, with a dielectric layer and a cathode, typically constructed from either molybdenum or niobium. The anode layer stores energy in an electrical field, while the cathode layer allows ions to flow between the anode and the cathode. This type of capacitor is well-suited to applications requiring high voltage capacity or miniature devices where space is at a premium.

The working principle of a tantalum capacitor is based on the accumulation and discharge of electrical current through the plates in an alternating electrical field. The dielectric material between the two plates provides an insulating layer that allows electricity to travel unimpeded between the plates when an external voltage is applied. When no voltage is applied, the dielectric material prevents current from moving from the plates. The structure of the capacitor determines the amount of energy it is able to store when aggregated with a certain voltage.

The T491C336M016ZTAU00 series capacitors are typically used in applications that require high levels of safety and precision such as automotive systems, aerospace systems, smartphones, and medical devices. These capacitors are well-suited for applications that require high performance and reliability in temperature extremes.
