Tantalum capacitors are electrolytic capacitors that feature an electrolyte of Ta2O5 and are either solid or have a thin-film dielectric layer. These capacitors offer various advantages over other types, which has enabled them to become commonplace in many different electronics applications. The T499A105K016ATE10K is an example of a tantalum capacitor that is commonly used in a wide range of applications.

The major advantage of tantalum capacitors is their significantly reduced size and weight, when compared to other types of capacitors such as aluminum electrolytic capacitors. Besides size and weight, tantalum capacitors also offer superior temperature stability, higher capacitance values, better leakage characteristics, as well as a longer life.

Being a polarization-dependent device, a tantalum capacitor can be polarized in two different ways: non-polarized and polarized. With the non-polarized type, the orientation of the device does not matter and it may be safely connected in any direction. The polarized type, however, requires a specific orientation of the device. Without the accurate orientation, the device may be damaged or destroyed.

The T499A105K016ATE10K is an axial-leaded, non-polarized tantalum capacitor that has a capacitance value of 10μF, a rated working voltage of 16V, and an allowed temperature that ranges from -55°C to +125°C. Its capacitance voltage coefficient is from +15%, its dissipation factor is 0.1 and its polarization resistance is 120000MΩ.

The T499A105K016ATE10K tantalum capacitor is typically used in audio frequency circuits, power supplies, portable electronics, and other high-RMS circuits. Its size and weight make it suitable for miniaturization of electronic circuits, making is especially useful for many consumer and laptops devices. Furthermore, since the device rated voltage is 16V and the working temperature range is broad, it is also suitable for applications that have steadily increasing working voltages.

In terms of working principle, like any other capacitor, the T499A105K016ATE10K also stores electrical energy in its dielectric material. Upon applying a potential difference across the two leads, positive and negative charges are accumulated on the two conductors, resulting in the formation of an electric field in the dielectric material. This electric field increases with the more electrical charges accumulated on the conductors, until the insulation strength of the dielectric is reached, thus limiting the amount of charge that can be stored. This process continues until a steady-state is achieved.

In conclusion, the T499A105K016ATE10K tantalum capacitor has a wide range of applications and its size and weight make it particularly suitable for miniaturization of electronic circuits. This particular device is non-polarized and it is able to store electrical energy in its dielectric material by accumulating and limiting the amount of charges on its two conductors. In terms of application, it is beneficial in audio frequency circuits, power supplies, portable electronics, and other high-RMS circuits and it can withstand steadily increasing working voltages.
