Tantalum in the electronics industry

The surface of tantalum can form a dense and stable amorphous oxide film with high dielectric strength, which is easy to accurately and conveniently control the anodizing process of the capacitor. At the same time, the tantalum powder sintered block can obtain a large surface area in a small volume. Therefore, use Tantalum capacitors with tantalum powder as anode and tantalum wire as anode lead have small volume, high capacity and stable performance, and can work normally under the severe conditions that many other capacitors are not competent. Therefore, tantalum capacitors have been widely used in surface mount technology (SMT) in the field of microelectronics science, and will further expand with the development of technology. Tantalum capacitors are widely used in communications, computers, automobiles, household and office appliances, instrumentation, aerospace, defense and military industries.
