Tantalum - Polymer Capacitors

Capacitors/Tantalum – Polymer Capacitors.Tantalum polymer capacitors are a polarized capacitor type distinguished by their use of a conductive polymer anode material, instead of the manganese dioxide traditionally used for other dry tantalum devices. While their cost tends to be higher, they also generally exhibit better electrical performance compared to traditional Ta-MnO2 device construction, along with a more benign failure mode that simplifies application considerations.
