Tantalum Capacitors

T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 Application Field and Working Principle

Tantalum capacitors are a variety of electrolytic capacitors. Developed in the mid-20th century, tantalum capacitors are exceptional for their high-density capacitor technology, enabling a long lifespan of up to 30 years when used according to manufacturer specifications. This is due to the use of tantalum pentoxide as the dielectric material, composed of microscopic particles, which are strung together in an organized fashion.

The T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 is among the best performing capacitors currently available on the market due to its superior quality and design. Using tantalum powder as the electric conduction material and polarized electrolyte as the medium, the T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 operates at a minimum capacitance of 4.7uF at a 6V rated voltage, making it great for circuit boards, storage, and other applications requiring reliable power solutions.

Application

The T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 is a highly robust and versatile capacitor designed for a variety of applications. It is well-suited for circuit designs and power storage solutions, owing to its low leakage at high temperatures and relatively low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance). It is well-suited for use in automotive components, telecom equipment, industrial controllers, medical equipment and instrumentation, military-grade modules, and audio equipment.

Working Principle

An electrolytic capacitor is a type of polarized capacitor. It contains two electrodes separated by an electrolyte, which acts as the dielectric. One of the electrodes is made of a metal such as tantalum, while the other is encased in an insulated layer. In the case of the T4ZA475K006CRLB4900, an anodized tantalum powder is used as the electro-conductive material and electrolyte is the medium that allows current to flow.

When a positive charge is applied to the anode, a current flows, allowing the ions to pass through the electrolyte, forming a layer on the anode. This forms the electric charge and creates a gap between the anode and the cathode. The gap size is measured by the capacitance, and in this case, the gap size for the T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 is 4.7uF at 6V rated voltage. This allows for a steady flow of charge and allows for reliable performance.

The T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 offers superior performance, with a maximum operating temperature of 125°C and a minimum operating temperature of -55°C. It also has a Capacitance Tolerance of ±20% at 120Hz/1V, ensuring a steady and reliable flow of electricity.

Conclusion

The T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 is a high-performance capacitor, offering great performance at high temperatures and low ESR. Its excellent quality and design make it ideal for use in a wide range of applications, including automotive components, telecom equipment, industrial controllers, medical equipment and instrumentation, military grade modules, and audio equipment.

Overall, the T4ZA475K006CRLB4900 is a reliable and durable capacitor, offering superior performance and a long lifespan when used in accordance with manufacturer specifications.
