T495D336K035ZTE300 tantalum capacitors are widely used components in a variety of engineering applications. Designed with solid electrolytic construction, these capacitors offer excellent signal-noise-interference filtration, high stability, and excellent frequency response characteristics. As a result, they are often used to provide the power supply necessary to high frequency signal processing applications such as receivers and transmitters.

Introduction

A tantalum capacitor is a type of electrolytic capacitor, which is made up of a metal oxide anode, a tantalum core, and a dielectric coating. This construction, combined with the high surface area of the core plate, allows for a wide range of low-to-high capacitance values, and a high degree of stability. By using different anode coatings, both makes it possible to modify the characteristics of the capacitor and how it will perform in various applications.

T495D336K035ZTE300 is a version of the standard tantalum capacitor which provides features and performance slightly better than the standard. This capacitor is also slightly smaller and lighter than the standard version which makes them ideal for use in more compact and weight-sensitive applications. This particular series of capacitors is characterized by very low ESR values (< 0.3 ohms) and high ripple current (5A max.). As a result, they are well-suited for use in DC-DC converter circuits and switching power supply circuits.

Applications

Due to their excellent features and performance, T495D336K035ZTE300 tantalum capacitors are commonly used in a variety of applications. For example, they are often used for general power supply filtration in audio and video electronics. They are also popularly used in switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), mobile phone chargers, notebook computers, and DC-DC converters, as well as in RF circuits for signal and frequency control.

Working Principle

The working principle of a T495D336K035ZTE300 tantalum capacitor is based on the combination of tantalum and a dielectric coating. When a voltage is applied to the capacitor, the tantalum core\'s surface oxidizes, forming a thin insulating layer, or dielectric. This dielectric has a number of small pathways allowing the flow of electric current. When the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage of the dielectric, the current begins to flow. This happens almost instantaneously and is responsible for the excellent high-frequency characteristics of the capacitor.

In addition, the increased surface area of the tantalum core drastically reduces the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the capacitor. Thus, it allows the capacitor to tolerate high ripple current without any additional circuitry. The ESR rating of the T495D336K035ZTE300 is rated at 0.3 ohms, which is quite impressive.

Conclusion

T495D336K035ZTE300 is a version of the standard tantalum capacitor which offers better features and performance than the standard version. Its smaller size and lighter weight make it ideal for use in more compact and weight-sensitive applications, while its low ESR and high ripple current tolerance make it suitable for use in switch-mode power supplies and DC-DC converters. Its high frequency response characteristics also make it an excellent choice for signal processing applications, such as receivers and transmitters.
