T95X106M016LSAL

Tantalum capacitors, also known as Ta-cap, are electrolytic capacitors featuring a tantalum cathode with a activating surface layer of oxide. They are widely used for high capacitance, small size and low cost with stable electrical characteristics.

The T95X106M016LSAL is a tantalum capacitor which is small in size, generally with a diameter of just 2.5 millimeters and a length from 6.3mm to 8.2mm. It features a maximum capacitance of 10uF and a voltage rating of 16V. While it is relatively small it can still have significant impacts for an application.

The application field for the T95X106M016LSAL tantalum capacitor includes power supplies, computers, consumer electronics, and telecommunication devices. In these areas, the capacitor is often used as decoupling capacitors/bypass capacitors, providing a low impedance path between the power supply and the load, and smoothing out the ripple in the power supply output.

In addition, the T95X106M016LSAL can be also used for frequency filtering, alarms, and LED flash components. When used with intermittent alarm circuits, the tantalum capacitor provides quick charge and discharge cycles, while also maintaining a good performance for current waveform, frequency stability, and temperature increase.

The working principle of the T95X106M016LSAL is the same as any other type of capacitor, storing electrical energy in an electric field. When externally connected to a DC voltage source, it acts as a charge pump, allowing rapid charge storage and release, but also forcing current to alternate directions. This process allows current to flow even at very low source voltage, reducing noise and stabilizing the output voltage of the circuit.

In summary, the T95X106M016LSAL tantalum capacitor is a relatively small component with significant power. It has numerous applications where it is ideal for providing a low impedance path for bypassing and decoupling, as well as frequency filtering and LED flash components. The working principle involves storing electrical energy in an electric field and allowing current to alternate direction, which provides noise reduction and improved voltage output stability.
