Tantalum - Polymer Capacitors

Tantalum-polymer capacitors are an emerging form of capacitive components which provide some of the highest levels of capacitance and power density available in the world of electric energy storage. The two major components of a polymer capacitor are a solid-state, electrolytic tantalum foil electrolyte, and a solid-state, monolithic or polymeric dielectric material (typically a cross-linked polymer). This combination of materials provides an extremely durable, highly efficient solution for electrical energy storage.

The T541X686M030BT8720 is a Tantalum-Polymer Capacitor, which is ideal for applications such as power supplies, servers, processors, industrial electronics, and communications systems.

It also offers a low equivalent series inductance (ESL) of 0.39nH, very low ESR of 0.05 Ohms at 100kHz, a maximum capacitance of 185uF, and a long service life of up to 100,000 hours. The T541X686M030BT8720 is suitable for a wide range of temperatures (between -40C and 125C) and is able to withstand up to 1000 temperature cycles. Combined with its several intricate safety features, this capacitor is an excellent choice for high-end applications which require reliability and endurance.

Application Field and Working Principle

The primary application field for T541X686M030BT8720 Tantalum-Polymer capacitor is in high power-density applications. It is especially suitable for high-end equipment, such as servers, industrial electronics, and communications systems, which require high ripple current and high power density. The capacitor is also ideal for applications including DC/DC converters, high frequency switch-mode power supplies, LED driver, HV DC/DC, and lighting.

Tantalum-Polymer capacitors function according to the same principles as traditional capacitors. This type of capacitor stores energy in an electrical field created between two Conductive electrodes, separated by a dielectric material. When a voltage is applied to the capacitor, a charge builds up on each of the electrodes, creating an electrical energy storage medium. The capacitance of this type of capacitor is dependent upon the type and thickness of the dielectric material, as well as the surface area of the electrodes.

The T541X686M030BT8720 Tantalum-Polymer capacitor also provides a highly durable solution for electrical energy storage. The monolithic dielectric material serves as a robust and insulating layer to protect the solid-state electrolyte, and keep the stored energy safe for extended periods of time. Additionally, the capacitor is especially suited for power applications, thanks to the low ESR and wide operating temperature range.

Benefits of Tantalum-Polymer Capacitor

Tantalum-Polymer capacitors provide several advantages over traditional, electrolytic capacitors. Thanks to their monolithic construction, Tantalum-Polymer capacitors are much smaller than their traditional counterparts, allowing for miniaturization of electronic devices, and enabling the use of a much higher capacitance-per-unit-volume ratio. This type of capacitor also has a much greater tolerance to damage and vibration, thanks to its robust and sturdy construction.

Tantalum-Polymer capacitors also offer increased reliability and endurance, thanks to their extremely low ESR and stable capacitance diode. They are also incredibly good at withstanding a wide range of temperatures, allowing them to be used in a number of environments. Finally, the capacitors are also highly environmentally-friendly, providing an ozone-safe alternative to traditional capacitors.
