1. Why are tantalum capacitors so expensive?
Tantalum ore resources are scarce and the mining cost is high.
The manufacturing process is complex and the yield is relatively low.
It has excellent electrical characteristics, making it indispensable in high-end applications. -
2. When to use tantalum capacitors?
When miniaturization, low ESR (equivalent series resistance), and stable operation over a wide temperature range are required.
Suitable for audio processing, communication equipment, computer motherboards and other fields. -
3. What special precautions must be taken when installing tantalum capacitors?
Ensure the correct polarity connection.
Be careful not to exceed the rated voltage.
Use appropriate fuses or other protective devices to prevent overcurrent.
Consider heat dissipation design to avoid local overheating. -
4. What causes tantalum capacitors to burn out?
Common causes include applying a voltage exceeding the maximum allowable value, excessive current, high ambient temperature, and manufacturing defects.
