  2. Polymer capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_capacitor

    Polymer tantalum electrolytic capacitors are essentially tantalum capacitors in which the electrolyte is a conductive polymer instead of manganese dioxide, see also tantalum capacitor#Materials, production and styles Tantalum capacitors are manufactured from a powder of relatively pure elemental tantalum metal.

  3. Tantalum capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantalum_capacitor

    Tantalum capacitors in different styles: axial, radial and SMD-chip versions (size comparison with a match) 10 μF 30 VDC-rated tantalum capacitors, solid electrolyte epoxy-dipped style. A tantalum electrolytic capacitor is an electrolytic capacitor , a passive component of electronic circuits .

  4. Capacitor types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_types

    Aluminum, tantalum and niobium electrolytic capacitors are named after the material used as the anode and the construction of the cathode (electrolyte) Polymer capacitors are aluminum, tantalum or niobium electrolytic capacitors with conductive polymer as electrolyte; Supercapacitor is the family name for:

  5. Tantalum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantalum

    Tantalum electrolytic capacitors exploit the tendency of tantalum to form a protective oxide surface layer, using tantalum powder, pressed into a pellet shape, as one "plate" of the capacitor, the oxide as the dielectric, and an electrolytic solution or conductive solid as the other "plate".

  6. Capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

    Some types of capacitors, primarily tantalum and aluminum electrolytic capacitors, as well as some film capacitors have a specified rating value for maximum ripple current. Tantalum electrolytic capacitors with solid manganese dioxide electrolyte are limited by ripple current and generally have the highest ESR ratings in the capacitor family.

  8. Decoupling capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decoupling_capacitor

    A decoupling capacitor provides a bypass path for transient currents, instead of flowing through the common impedance. [1] The decoupling capacitor works as the device’s local energy storage. The capacitor is placed between the power line and the ground to the circuit the current is to be provided.
