Low ESR Tantalum Capacitors in Circuit Design Written By: Colin Li Abstract: Tantalum is a relatively scarce transition metal with several unique properties that make it a technology-critical element. It is highly corrosion-resistant and chemically inert. It is non-ferrous and non-magnetic, has a high melting point and density, and is extremely stiff. Most importantly, Tantalum readily forms a protective and electrically insulating oxide layer. This ability makes it an ideal candidate as the base building block of electrolytic capacitors.
KYOCERA AVX is returning to APEC with two presentations and an exhibition focused on high-power, high-energy component solutions for power electronics systems in automotive, industrial, military, aerospace, transportation, consumer electronics, and wide bandgap applications. FOUNTAIN INN, S.C. (March 22, 2022) – KYOCERA AVX, a leading global manufacturer of advanced electronic components engineered to accelerate technological innovation and build a better future, is presenting and exhibiting at APEC 2022, which is taking place this week in Houston, Texas. The event began on Sunday, March 20, and will continue through Thursday, March 24, and the exhibition opens today and continues through tomorrow. Internationally recognized as the premier annual event in applied power electronics, this year’s conference and exhibition features five full days
Capacitors are among the most widely used passive components in electronics, so naturally they find their way into many applications in harsh operating environments. In certain applications such as those in oil logging, jet aircraft, nuclear power generation, and other industrial applications, these components are subject to extremely high temperatures, often somewhere in the range of 180°C to 300°C. how2power.com March 2022
The 25th annual SPDEI Trophies recognized KYOCERA AVX for the superior quality of its support for and collaboration with the French electronics industry, as measured by more than seven key criteria. FOUNTAIN INN, S.C.

The SPDEI Trophies, now in their 25th year and presented annually apart from 2020, are bestowed by the French association of electronic components distributors, Syndicat Professionnel de la Distribution en Electronique Industrielle (SPDEI), and celebrate a select group of suppliers for the superior quality of their support for and
The need for bulk capacitors is growing due to a combination of increased production levels of traditional electronics, circuit trends requiring high capacitance values on supply rails, distributed energy/energy harvesting trends and new electronic circuitry replacing non-electronic applications. The most visible examples of these are low-voltage ICs and electronics integrated into items as simple as everyday hand tools (cordless tools, electronic levels, etc.) to Wi-Fi-linked rain gauges, general-purpose IoT modules and more. Electronic proliferation is across all industry sectors and applications. how2power.com February 2022
