Tantalum capacitors are a type of electrolytic capacitor that is made from tantalum metal. This type of capacitor is often preferred for applications that require high capacitance and electrical stability. The T95X336K004ESAL is a type of surface-mount tantalum capacitor with a case size of T95 and a voltage rating of 4V. It has a maximum capacitance of 336uF and a standard ESR of 17mOhm.

The T95X336K004ESAL tantalum capacitors are widely used in many different applications, including medical devices, automotive electronics, and consumer electronics, among others. In medical devices, the capacitors are used for filtering, bypass, and blocking applications. They are also used in automotive electronics for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and other embedded devices. In consumer electronics, the capacitors are used for audio filtering and signal filtering.

The working principle behind a tantalum capacitor is based on two types of electrical elements - electrodes and dielectric. The electrodes serve as the source and sink for electrons in the circuit while the dielectric provides insulation between the electrodes. When a voltage is applied to the capacitor, electrons flow from one electrode to the other, creating an electric field that is stored in the dielectric material. This field allows the capacitor to store a charge and then slowly discharge it when the applied voltage is removed. This process is known as capacitance.

The capacitance value of the T95X336K004ESAL is 336uF, or microfarads. This means that the capacitor can store 336 million electrons per volt of applied voltage. The ESR (Equivalent Series Resistor) is 17mOhm and is used to determine the amount of energy removed by the capacitor over time, referred to as the “ripple current”. This value allows designers to determine the amount of noise present in the circuit, which is important for filtering applications.

Overall, the T95X336K004ESAL tantalum capacitor is a reliable component used in a variety of applications, including medical devices, automotive electronics, and consumer electronics. It offers a capacitance value of 336uF and an ESR of 17mOhm, making it suitable for filtering, bypass, and blocking applications. Moreover, the dielectric material of a tantalum capacitor provides insulation between the electrodes and allows it to store a charge and slowly discharge it when the applied voltage is removed.
