TAJD226M016Y

Tantalum capacitors are used in a variety of devices and applications, from handheld electronics to home appliances and industrial power. The TAJD226M016Y specifically is a surface mount solid tantalum capacitor made to provide high performance, reliability, and stability in a range of applications.

The TAJD226M016Y specifically has a capacitance of 22µF at 6.3VDC, and features 10% tolerance, 20mR ESR, and robustness up to 85°C. Its solid construction, low leakage current, and small size make it ideal for use in high-density circuits, mobile phones, PDAs, digital cameras, and other similar appliances.

Working Principle of the TAJD226M016Y

As with most other types of capacitors, the TAJD226M016Y has two plates, each separated by a dielectric (insulator). The plates are connected by a conductor, and each has a voltage applied to it. When the capacitor is connected to a power source, the electric charge flows from one plate to the other. This flow of electric charge creates an electric field within the dielectric of the capacitor, and this electric field stores energy.

The energy stored in a capacitor like the TAJD226M016Y depends on two primary factors: the capacitance value and the applied voltage. The capacitance is determined by the size of the plates and the dielectric material, and the voltage is determined by the power source. As an example, if a 6.3VDC voltage is applied to the TAJD226M016Y, it will store 22 µF of energy.

When the TAJD226M016Y is connected to a load, electric charge starts to displace from one plate to another as the load uses up the electric charge stored in the capacitor. When the charge is completely depleted, the capacitor is said to be discharged, and it can no longer store energy until it is once again connected to a power source.

Applications and Benefits of the TAJD226M016Y

Due to its high capacitance value, solid construction, and small size, the TAJD226M016Y is a great option for a variety of applications. Some of the more common applications include filtering out of global interference in power circuits, stabilizing DC power supplies, providing buffering and decoupling of signals, and for use in bypassing AC line noise.

One of the main benefits of the TAJD226M016Y is its relatively low temperature coefficient, which keeps its capacitance value relatively stable over a wide range of temperatures. This makes it a great choice for use in applications that might be susceptible to extreme temperatures.

The TAJD226M016Y is also a cost-effective option, due to its compact size and robust construction. This makes it an attractive choice for commercial, consumer, and industrial applications, where cost is an important factor.

Finally, the TAJD226M016Y is especially well-suited for high-density printed circuit boards (PCBs) due to its extremely small size. It can also be used in virtually any type of PCB application, including flash memory, microprocessors, digital cameras, and cellular phones.

Conclusion

The TAJD226M016Y is a robust, reliable, and highly effective surface mount tantalum capacitor capable of providing high performance in a range of applications. It has a low temperature coefficient that helps maintain its capacitance value over a wide range of temperatures, and its small size makes it ideal for high-density PCBs. The cost-effectiveness of the TAJD226M016Y makes it an attractive choice for commercial, consumer, and industrial applications where cost is a factor.
