Tantalum Capacitors

Introduction

Tantalum capacitors are extremely versatile because of their low leakage, high capacitance and wide temperature range capabilities. It is possible to find many different types of capacitors integrated into this technology, ranging from variable capacitors to chip-type capacitors. This article will focus on the TH3A685K016F2600 application field and working principle.

Description of the TH3A685K016F2600

The TH3A685K016F2600 is a chip-type tantalum capacitor manufactured by Microchip Technology, Inc. It is a surface-mount device built with a tantalum core and a tantalum anode. It features a rated capacitance of 6.85µF and a rated voltage of 16V. These features make it suitable for use in portable applications such as mobile phones, laptop computers, and digital cameras.

Application Field for the TH3A685K016F2600

Tantalum capacitors are frequently employed in various portable electronic devices due to their ability to provide stable voltage at a given frequency and temperature. In addition, their high capacitance makes them suitable for powering small components such as LCD displays. The TH3A685K016F2600 is no exception, and can be found in a variety of mobile electronic devices and RF applications, such as PDAs, Smartphones, and GPS units.The TH3A685K016F2600 is also popular in automotive applications due to its low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and high capacitance. This feature makes it well-suited for providing steady power to automotive sensors and controllers. In fact, it is commonly used in engine control, antilock braking, and power train systems.

Working Principle

The TH3A685K016F2600 operates under the same basic principle as other types of capacitor. When a voltage is applied across a capacitor, it accumulates a charge, creating an electric field between the anode and cathode. This electric field interacts with the capacitor’s dielectric material, creating a field of stored energy. As current passes through the capacitor, the stored energy is then released.The TH3A685K016F2600 is unique in that its high capacitance is achieved by using a tantalum core. This material allows for more efficient charge storage, resulting in lower equivalent series resistance (ESR). As a result, the capacitor has higher capacitance and can charge/discharge more quickly. In addition, its use of tantalum also makes it more resistant to heat and higher voltage fluctuations compared to conventional capacitors.

Conclusion

The TH3A685K016F2600 is an excellent choice for portable, automotive, and RF applications because of its low leakage and wide temperature range capabilities. Thanks to its unique design, it can efficiently store energy and quickly charge/discharge. This is all thanks to the use of a tantalum core, which makes it more resistant to heat and fluctuations. By coupling its high capacitance with low ESR, the TH3A685K016F2600 is a highly effective choice for a variety of electronic devices.
