T499C685K020ATE1K9

T499C685K020ATE1K9 is one type of tantalum capacitor. As a form of electrolytic capacitor, it belongs to the category of surface mount devices (SMD) and has a wide range of applications.

The device features relatively large capacitive values due to its usable area. This results in it being a great option for many applications like power supplies, high frequency filters, and decoupling circuits where size is a major concern.

This tantalum capacitor is an axial-leaded type, which means it’s a through-hole type of capacitor that has leads which come out of the top and bottom of the device. This can come in handy for simple prototyping and testing of a circuit, but it also allows for easy assembly in production runs.

T499C685K020ATE1K9 has a capacitance value of 20 uF and a voltage rating of 10 V. It has an electrochemical characteristics that is distinct from other types of electrolytic capacitors, the ability to endure higher potentials without forming an oxide layer which would make it less effective.

The primary advantage of the T499C685K020ATE1K9 is that it somewhat limits the need for multiple capacitors when targeting a certain capacitance value. Its higher capacitance makes it suitable for many applications, like in high voltage power supply circuits where more capacitance is necessary to handle the large spikes in energy.

The working principle of the T499C685K020ATE1K9 is no different than other electrolytic capacitors. When the two electrodes make contact with the electrolyte, an electric charge develops in the material, and the capacitor is able to store the electrical energy. When the voltage applied across the capacitor changes, it will either absorb or release charge.

The amount of charge that can be stored in the capacitor is dependent on the amount of material in the electrodes, the values of resistances and inductances of the circuit and the severity of the external conditions such as temperature. Due to its size it is not as suitable for extremely high current applications as other types of capacitors such as aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

The T499C685K020ATE1K9 is a reliable and durable device, which makes it a great choice in a variety of applications. It’s most commonly used in noise and ripple filtering, general timing, and power supply applications, as well as in some high frequency applications. It can also be used in a variety of industries, such as aerospace, automotive, and consumer electronics.
