Tantalum Capacitors

A tantalum capacitor is a type of electrolytic capacitor, an electronic component that uses the property of capacitance to store electrical charge. It utilizes a tantalum oxide as a non-conductive dielectric material, sandwiched together with two metallic plates which act as the electrodes. This type of capacitor is polarized and has excellent features such as low leakage, high capacitance stability and high temperature resistance. It is usually used in a wide variety of electronic devices, including those that require a high stability and low leakage current.

TPSY686M010R0100 Application Field and Working Principle

The TPSY686M010R0100 is a tantalum capacitor designed for use in high-surge applications, such as switching power supply circuits, DC-DC converters, and similar designs. The 330uF 16V capacitor has an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, high surge capability and excellent electrical parameters for reliable operation. It is ideal for use in situations where electrical noise and ripple is a concern or a high operating temperature is expected.

The working principle of the device is fairly straightforward. When a voltage is applied to the unit, the two metallic plates of the capacitor form an energy storage device. An electrical current flows through the dielectric material, creating an electrical charge that is stored in the capacitor. Once the electrical charge is established, it will remain until the voltage is removed or reduced. This way, the capacitor is able to store and release electrical energy much like a battery, but unlike a battery, it does not degrade over time.

The TPSY686M010R0100 capacitor is one of the newest models from its popular capacitor series, offering excellent electrical characteristics and impressive surge capabilities. It is capable of tolerating high voltages and surges due to its low equivalent series resistance (ESR). This makes it ideal for use in high-voltage switching circuits, where increased electrical noise can be expected. The capacitor has an excellent temperature range and is able to operate reliably for a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for use in many different types of applications.

The TPSY686M010R0100 capacitor is therefore an excellent choice for use in a wide range of sensitive electronic applications, such as DC-DC converters, high-voltage switching power supply circuits, and other such applications. Its impressive features such as excellent surge capability and low ESR make it ideal for use in high-voltage switching circuits, while its wide temperature range makes it suitable for use in most common applications.
