Tantalum Capacitors

Tantalum capacitors are made from the metal tantalum in the form of a powder that is pressed and sintered into a pellet. This pellet is then used as an anode in a conventional electrolytic capacitor, with another anode material, an insulating oxide film on its surface, and a cathode system.

T97F336K050CAB capacitors are a type of tantalum capacitor. They are a surface mount molded chip capacitor with 50 mF of capacitance and a 6.3 VDC working voltage. They are used for a variety of applications in the consumer, industrial, and medical/healthcare industries.

In commercial and consumer industries, they are often used in mobile phone/smartphone power circuits, DC/DC converter circuits for laptops, tablet PCs, servers, and medical/healthcare devices such as blood glucose meters and ECG monitors.

T97F336K050CAB capacitors can also be used in automotive electronics, primarily in control circuits for automotive audio, climate control, lighting, and back-up/start-stop circuits. In the medical/healthcare realm, they are often used in medical testing and imaging equipment as well as in-home diagnostic monitors.

Working Principle

The working principle of tantalum capacitors is based on the behavior of dielectric materials. For any capacitor, the current flow from one terminal to another is a function of its capacitance, voltage, and frequency. When a potential difference is applied across the terminals of a capacitor, an electric field generates and this electric field applies an electro-motive force on the mobile charge carriers, causing them to move through the dielectric material.

The dielectric material of the capacitor is able to store energy which is proportional to the voltage applied across it. This stored energy is known as capacitive reactance and is inversely proportional to the frequency of the voltage applied. In the case of tantalum capacitors, an oxide layer (the dielectric material) is formed on the tantalum pellet which is used as the anode. The cathode is typically formed from a manganese dioxide layer.

When a voltage is applied across the two terminals of the capacitor, the work needed to move a charge (known as electric field strength) increases proportionally to the applied voltage. This results in an increase in capacitance with increasing voltage.

T97F336K050CAB capacitors, in particular, can handle higher peak working voltage and current over regular lead capacitors, providing a greater level of performance. This allows them to be used in a wide variety of applications where high performance and reliability are required.

Conclusion

T97F336K050CAB capacitors are a type of tantalum capacitor that is used in a wide variety of applications in the consumer, industrial, and medical/healthcare industries. They can handle higher peak current and provide greater performance than other types of capacitors, making them ideal for these industries. The working principle of these capacitors is based on the behavior of dielectric materials and the storage of energy in the dielectric layer.
