1. Difference between ordinary capacitors and tantalum capacitors
Material: Ordinary capacitors can be aluminum electrolytic capacitors, ceramic capacitors, etc.; while tantalum capacitors use metal tantalum as anode material.
Performance: Generally, tantalum capacitors have better temperature stability and higher capacity-to-volume ratio.
Application range: Due to its performance characteristics, tantalum capacitors are often used in miniaturized electronic products that require high reliability. -
2. Why do tantalum capacitors explode?
The main reason is that excessive voltage or current shocks cause internal short circuits, which trigger thermal runaway.
Excessive ambient temperature may also exacerbate this situation. -
3. Can I use ceramic capacitors instead of tantalum capacitors?
It depends on the specific situation. If the size, ESR requirements are not high and a specific capacitance value is not required, you can consider replacing it.
But be aware that there are differences in physical properties between the two, and direct replacement may affect the working state of the circuit. -
4. Is tantalum better than tungsten?
It depends on the application. For capacitors, tantalum is preferred due to its unique properties; while in some other industrial uses, such as making filaments, tungsten is preferred.
