Tantalum capacitors are manufactured from a powder of pure tantalum metal. A typical particle size for a high voltage powder would be 10 μm. By carefully choosing which powder is used to produce each capacitance/voltage code the surface area can be controlled. Powders with large particle size are used to produce high voltage capacitors.
Surface mount technology tantalum capacitors are increasingly being used in new circuit designs because of their volumetric efficiency, basic reliability and process compatibility. Additionally, they are replacing aluminum electrolytics, which use a wet electrolyte.
The tantalum powder obtained by calcium thermal reduction with a small specific surface and high oxygen content (0.566−0.610 wt.%) , which makes it unsuitable for use in capacitors. However, the tantalum powder can be cold-rolled into various products such as rods after electron beam melting.
The specific surface area of tantalum powder prepared by magnesium reduction of tantalum oxide can reach 15 m2/g , making it suitable for the application in tantalum capacitors . Therefore, magnesium reduction of tantalum oxide is considered to be the most promising method for preparing cap-grade tantalum powder.
Areas of interest are highlighted. The electrical characteristics of a tantalum capacitor are determined by its structure, for example the ESR of a tantalum capacitor is very dependent on the tantalum pentoxide dielectric at low frequencies and on the internal manganese dioxide at higher frequencies.
