AVX offers a broad line of molded solid tantalumcapacitors in a wide range of sizes, styles, andratings to meet your design needs. This catalogcombines into one source AVXs SMD tantalumcapacitor information from its worldwide tantalumoperations.

The TAJ series includes EIA standard case sizesand ratings, along with extended range values. Lowprofile packages and MIL-Style CWR11 compo-nents are available as part of the TAJ family.

The TPS Low ESR SMD product line was intro-duced last year and is included in this catalog toprovide a comprehensive listing of our tantalumsurface mount lines. TPS has its own catalog whichcovers performance and applications in depth. Thiscatalog may be obtained from your local AVX repre-sentative.

The TAZ Series offers high volume efficiencycomponents in a wide variety of footprints. Five

of those footprints have a nominal height of 0.050inches which make them ideal for low profile appli-cations.

The TAZ series is qualified as the MIL-StyleCWR09, the molded equivalent of the MIL-StyleCWR06. Two new case sizes are added to this

series, increasing the capacitance/voltage ratingsavailable for both low and high values. Extendedrange values are also available in all series.

AVX offers tantalum applications service foruse by our customers, please contact your localrepresentative if you wish to discuss any specialrequirements.

Surface Mount Tantalum CapacitorsTPS Series Tantalum Low ESR Capacitors

The TP S (Ta nta lum for P ow er S upplies ) surfa ce mo unt

products have inherently low ESR (equivalent series

resistance) and is capable of higher r ipple current ,

handling, producing lower ripple voltages, less power

and heat dissipation than standard product for the most

efficient use of circuit power.

TP S has been d esigned, ma nufac tured, a nd preco ndi-

tioned for optimum performance in typical power supply

environments. By combining the latest improvements in

tantalum powder technology, improved manufacturing

processes, and applica t ion specif ic precondit ioning

tests, AVX is able to provide a technologically superior

a l ternat ive to standard molded or conformal coatedtantalum capacitors.

Introduction

Tanta lum ca pac itors a re ma nufac tured from a pow der of

pure ta ntalum meta l. The typica l particle size is b etw een 2

and 10 m.

4000FV 10000FV 20000FV The pow der is c ompress ed unde r high press ure a round a

Tanta lum w ire to form a pe llet. The rise r wire is the a nod e

connection to the capacitor.

This is sub se q uently va cuum s intered a t high te mperature

(typica lly 1500 - 2000 C). This he lps to drive off any impuri-

ties within the powder by migration to the surface.

During s in ter ing the powder becomes a sponge l ike

structure with all the particles interconnected in a huge

la ttice . This s tructure is of high mec ha nica l streng th a nd

density, but is also highly porous giving a large internal

surface area.

The large r the s urfac e a rea the larger the ca pac itanc e.

Thus high C V (ca pa citance /voltag e prod uct) pow de rs, w hich

have a low average particle size, are used for low voltage,high c apa citance pa rts . The figure below s hows typica l

powders. Note the very great difference in particle size

betw een the powder CVs.

B y c h oos in g w h ic h p owd er is u sed t o p rodu c e ea c h

controlled.

The follow ing e xa mple use s a 22F 25V ca pa citor to

illust rate the p oint.

C = orA

d

where o is the dielectric constant of free space(8.855 x 10-12 Fara ds /m)

r is the rela tive d ielec tric c ons ta nt for Ta nta lumPentoxide (27)

d is the d ielectric thickness in meters (for a typica l

25V part)C is the ca pac itance in Farad sand Ais the surface area in meters

Rearranging this equation gives

A = Cdo

r

thus for a 22F/25V ca pa citor the surface area is 150 sq uare

centimeters, o r nearly 12 the size of this pa ge.

The d ielectric is then formed over a ll the tanta lum s urfa ce s

by the electrochemica l proc ess of a nodiza tion. The pellet is

dipped in to a very weak so lut ion o f phosphoric ac id .

The d ielectric thickness is co ntrolled by the voltag e a pplied

during the forming process. Initially the power supply is kept

in a constant current mode until the correct thickness of

dielectric has been reached (that is the voltage reaches the

forming voltage), it then switches to constant voltage mode

and the current deca ys to c lose to zero.

The chemica l eq uations des cribing the proc es s a re a s

follows:

Anode: 2 Ta 2 Ta 5+ + 10 e

2 Ta 5+ 10 OH-Ta 2O5 + 5 H2O

Ca thode: 10 H2O 10 e 5H2 + 10 OH-

The oxide fo rms o n the surfac e of the Ta nta lum but it also

grows into the metal. For each unit of oxide two thirds grows

out and one third grows in. It is for this reason that there is a

The p ellet is the n dipped into g raphite a nd s ilver to

of ca rbon onto the surfac e of the cathod e. The ca rbon

to meet individual specifications and customer requirements.

1.1 Capacitance

1.1.1 Rated Capacitance (CR).This is the nominal ra ted c a pa citance . For tanta lum ca pa ci-

tors it is measured as the capacitance of the equivalentse ries c ircuit at 20C using a me a suring b ridg e supplied b y a

120Hz source, free of harmonics with a maximum bias of

2.2V d.c.

1.1.2 Capacitance tolerance.This is the p ermissible va ria tion o f the a ctua l value of the

capacitance from the rated value. For additional reading,

please consult the AVX technical publication "Capacitance

Tolera nces for S olid Tanta lum C a pa citors" .

1.1.3 Temperature dependence of capacitance.The ca pa citance o f a tanta lum cap a citor varies w ith temper-

a ture. This varia tion itself is dep ende nt to a sma ll extent on

the rated voltag e a nd ca pac itor size.

1.1.4 Frequency dependence of the capacitance.The effective ca pac itance d ecreas es a s freq uency increa ses .

Beyond 100KHz the capacitance continues to drop until res-

onance is reached (typically between 0.5 - 5MHz depending

on the rating). Beyond the resonant frequency the device

bec omes inductive.

1.2 Voltage

1.2.1 Rated d.c. voltage. (VR)This is the rated d.c . volta ge fo r co ntinuous op eration at

85C.

1.2.2 Category voltage (VC)This is the ma ximum volta ge that ma y be a pplied co ntinu-

ously to a capacitor. It is equal to the rated voltage up to

+ 85C , be yond w hich it is s ubject to a linea r derating, to 2/3

VR at 125C .

1.2.3 Surge voltage.(US)This is the highes t voltag e that ma y be a pplied to a ca pa citor

for short period s o f time. The s urge volta ge ma y be a pplied

up to 10 times in an hour for periods of up to 30s at a time.

The surge voltag e must not be us ed a s a pa rameter in thedes ign o f circuits in w hich, in the norma l course of o peration,

the ca pac itor is periodically cha rged and discharged.

1.2.4 Effect of surgesThe s olid Ta nta lum ca pa citor has a limited a bility to w ith-

sta nd voltag e a nd c urrent surges . This is in co mmon w ith all

other electrolytic capacitors and is due to the fact that they

operate under very high electrical stress across the dielec-

tric. For example a 25 volt capacitor has an Electrical Field

of 147 KV/mm w hen opera ted a t rated volta ge .

It is important to ensure that the voltage across the terminals

of the capacitor never exceeds the specified surge voltage

rating.

Solid tantalum capacitors have a self healing ability of the

Manganese Dioxide semiconduct ing layer used as the

negative plate, however this is limited in low impedanceapplications.

In the case of low impedance circuits, the capacitor is likely

to be stressed by current surges. Derating the capacitor by

50% or more increases the reliability of the component. See

figure 2 pa ge 33. The AVX Rec omm end ed Dera ting Ta ble

(page 34) summarizes voltage rating for use on common

voltage rails, in low impedance applications.

In circuits which undergo rapid charge or discharge a pro-

tective resistor of 1/V is recomme nde d. If this is impossi-

ble, a derating fa ctor of up to 70% should b e used.

In such situations a higher voltage may be needed than is

available as a single capacitor. A series combination shouldbe used to increase the working voltage of the equivalent

capacitor: For example two 22F 25V parts in series is

equivalent to a 11F 50V part. For further details refer to

J .A.G ills pa per Inves tiga tion into the e ffects of co nnecting

Ta nta lum c a pa citors in se ries , a va ila ble from AVX offices

worldwide.

NOTE:

While testing a circuit (e.g. at ICT or functional) it is likely that

the capacitors will be subjected to large voltage and current

transients, which will not be seen in normal use. These con-

ditions should be borne in mind when considering the

capacitors rated voltage for use. These can be controlled byensuring a correct test resistance is used.

1.2.5 Reverse voltage and Non-Polar operation.The reverse voltag e ratings a re des igne d to c over exception-

al conditions of small level excursions into incorrect polarity.

The va lues q uoted are not intended to c over continuous

reverse opera tion.

The pea k reverse vo ltag e a pplied to the ca pa citor must not

exceed:

10% of the rated d.c. working voltage to a maximum of

1.0v at 25 C

3% of the rated d.c. working voltage to a maximum of0.5v at 85 C

1% of the ca tegory d.c . w orking voltag e to a maximum of

0.1v a t 125 C

Non-Polar operation.If higher reverse voltages are unavoidable, then two capaci-

tors, each of twice the required capacitance and of equal

to lerance and ra ted vol t age , should be connected in a

bac k- t o-bac k c on f igu ra t ion , i . e . bo t h an odes o r bo t h

1.2.6 Superimposed A.C. Voltage (Vr.m.s.) -

Ripple Voltage.This is the ma ximum r.m.s . a lternating voltag e; s uperim-

posed on a d.c. voltage, that may be applied to a capacitor.

Th e s u m o f t h e d . c . v o lt a g e a n d p e a k va lu e o f t h e

superimposed a.c. voltage must not exceed the category

voltag e, Uc.

Full details are given in section 2.

1.2.7 Forming voltage.

This is the voltag e a t w hich the a node oxide is formed. Thethickness of this oxide layer is proportional to the formation

voltag e for a tantalum ca pac itor and is a factor in setting the

rated voltag e.

1.3 Dissipation Factor andTangent of Loss Angle (Tan )

1.3.1 Dissipation factor (D.F.).Dissipation factor is the measurement of the tangent of the

loss a ngle (tan ) express ed a s a percentag e. The mea sure-

ment of DF is c a rried o ut at + 20C a nd 120Hz w ith 2.2V d.c .

bias with an a .c. voltag e free of harmonics . The value of DF

is temperature a nd frequency d ependent.

Note: For surface mounted products the maximum allowed

DF values are indicated in the ratings table and it is impor-

tant to note that these are the limits met by the component

AFTER so ldering onto the s ubs trate .

1.3.2 Tangent of Loss Angle (Tan ).This is a mea surement of the ene rgy los s in the ca pa citor. It

is express ed a s Ta n and is the power loss of the capacitor

divided by its reac tive powe r at a sinusoida l voltag e of s pec -

ified freq uency. Terms a lso used a re powe r fa ctor, los s fa ctor

and dielectric loss. Cos (90 - ) is the true pow er fa cto r. The

mea sureme nt of Ta n is c arried o ut at + 20C and 120 Hz

with 2.2V d.c. bias with an a.c. voltage free of harmonics.

1.3.3 Frequency dependence of Dissipation Factor.

Dissipation Factor increases with frequency as shown in the

typica l curves:

1.3.4 Temperature Dependence of Dissipation Factor.Dissipation factor varies with temperature as the typical

curves show. For maximum limits please refer to ratings

tables.

1.4 Impedance, (Z) and Equivalent SeriesResistance (ESR)

1.4.1 Impedance, Z.This is the ratio of voltag e to current a t a spe cified freq uen-

cy. Three fa ctors c ontribute to the imped anc e of a tanta lum

capacitor; the resistance of the semiconductor layer; the

capacitance value and the inductance of the electrodes and

leads.

At high frequencies the inductance of the leads becomes a

limiting fa cto r. The tem pera ture a nd freq uency be ha vior of

these three factors of impedance determine the behavior of

the impeda nce Z. The impeda nce is mea sured at 20 C a nd

100kHz.

1.4.2 Equivalent Series Resistance, ESR.Resistance losses occur in all practical forms of capacitors.

These are ma de up from s everal dif ferent mecha nisms ,

including resistance in components and contacts, viscous

forces within the dielectric and defects producing bypass

current pa ths. To express the effect of these los se s they a re

co nsidered a s the ES R of the ca pa citor. The ESR is freq uen-

cy d ependent and ca n be found by using the relationship;

ESR = Ta n

2fC

Where f is the frequency in Hz, and C is the capac itanc e in farads .

The ESR is mea sured a t 20 C a nd 100kHz.

ESR is one of the contributing factors to impedance, and at

high frequencies (100kHz. and above) it becomes the domi-

nant factor. Thus ESR a nd impeda nce be come almost iden-

tica l, impeda nce being only ma rginally higher.

1.4.3 Frequency dependence of Impedance and ESR.ESR a nd Impeda nce b oth increase with dec reas ing freq uen-

cy. At lower frequencies the values diverge as the extra

contributions to impedance (due to the reactance of the

capacitor) become more significant. Beyond 1 MHz. (and

beyond the resonant point of the capacitor) impedance

ag ain increa ses due to the inductance of the ca pac itor.

1.4.4 Temperature Dependence of the Impedanceand ESR.

At 100kHz, impedance and ESR behave identically and

decrease with increasing temperature as the typical curves

show.

1.5 D.C. Leakage Current (IL)

1.5.1 Leakage current, ILThe leakag e c urrent is d epend ent on the voltag e a pplied, the

elapsed time since the voltage was applied and the compo-

nent temperature. It is me as ured a t + 20C with the rated

voltag e a pplied. A protective resista nce o f 1000 is con-

nected in series with the capacitor in the measuring circuit.

Three to five minutes a fter applica tion o f the rated volta ge

the leakage current must not exceed the maximum values

indicated in the ra tings tab les . These ta bles a re ba se d on

0.01CV or 0.5A, w hichever is g reater.

Reforming of tantalum capacitors is unnecessary even after

prolonged periods without the application of voltage.

1.5.2 Temperature dependence of the leakage current.The leakag e c urrent increa se s with higher tempe ratures , typ-

ical values are shown in the graph. For operation between

85C and 125C, the maximum working voltage must be

derated and can be found from the following formula.

Umax = 1- (T- 85) x VRvolts, whe re Tis the req uired125

1.5.3 Voltage dependence of the leakage current.The leaka ge current d rops rapidly b elow the value co rre-

In an a.c. application heat is generated within the capacitorby both the a.c. component of the signal (which will depend

upon the signal form, amplitude and frequency), and by the

d.c. leakage. For practical purposes the second factor is

insignifica nt. The a ctua l power diss ipa ted in the ca pa citor is

calculated using the formula:

P = I2 R

and substituting P = E2 R

Where P ma x is the maximum permissible power dissipateda s listed for the prod uct under co nsideration (se e ta bles).

However care must be taken to ensure that:

1. The d.c . wo rking voltag e of the ca pa citor must not be

exceeded by the sum of the positive peak of the applied

a.c. voltage and the d.c. bias voltage.

2. The sum of the applied d .c. b ias voltag e a nd the nega tive

peak of the a.c. voltage must not allow a voltage reversal

in excess of the Reverse Voltage.

A piece of equipment was designed which would pass sine

and square wave currents of varying amplitudes through a

bias ed c a pa citor. The temperature rise s een on the bo dy for

the capacitor was then measured using an infra-red probe.

This ens ured tha t there w as no hea t los s through a ny ther-

mocouple attached to the ca pac itors s urface.

Results for the C, D a nd E ca se s izes

Se veral capa citors were tested a nd the comb ined results a re

shown here. All these capacitors were measured on FR4

bo a rd, with no other hea tsinking. The ripple wa s supplied at

various freq uencies from 1KHz to 1MHz.

As can be seen in the figure above, the average P ma x value

for the C ca se ca pac itors w as 0.11 Watts. This is the sa me

a s tha t q uoted in Ta ble I.

The D ca se ca pac itors ga ve an average P ma x value 0.125

Wa tts. This is low er than the va lue q uoted in the ta ble by

0.025 Wa tts .

The E ca se ca pac itors ga ve an average P ma x of 0.200 Watts

which w as much higher than the 0.165 Wa tts from tab le 1.

If a typical capacitors ESR with frequency is considered,

e.g . figure below, it ca n be se en tha t there is va ria tion. Thus

for a set ripple current, the amount of power to be dissipated

by the c a pa citor will vary with freq uency. This is clea rly

shown in figure in top of next column, which shows that the

units surface temperature rises less for a given value of rip-

ple current at 1MHz than at 100KHz.

The graph below s how s a typica l ESR va riation with freq uency.
